Students had the opportunity not only to see the good work that the process of baking bread can do in the world, but to play a part in that process as well. Seeing the different experiences come together was a wonderful journey for our students and a testament to the hard work of our Grade 6 team and our strong and committed network of alumni and former faculty. The depth of Shore’s multi-faceted service learning program was on display as students asked thought-provoking questions and played their part in making our community a better place for all. 

A thrilling defeat at SquashBusters yesterday! We won multiple games but were ultimately unable to take the majority of matches. Several battles saw Shore players push their opponents to the third game to decide the contest. Overall, our serving, control of the T, and agility was much improved. In addition, Shore athletes were challenged to play a bigger role in reffing and scoring the games, and they handled the disagreements and uncertainties of full-speed points with patience.  A big thank you to SquashBusters to host us in their beautiful Lawrence facility. We will be hungry for a rematch next season!

This winter, Shore’s set crew has been hard at work creating all sorts of props, structures, and backdrops for our upcoming musical, HONK! Thanks to the efforts of these exceptional students and their instructors, Shore’s musical will once again have a robust array of materials to use in their production.

What a strong showing at Fay! Although our team needs frequent reminders to think positively of their play, we have much to be proud of from our match today. In years past, we have eked out maybe one game, or perhaps one set from our experienced opponents from Fay. Today, Shore competitors earned significant points, many contests were pushed to the utmost, and we won three! Ultimately, we earned more wins than we have done in recent memory. We went up against a strong team, played hard, and emerged with heads held high. Defeats like this show us what is required to play at the next level, so, hard though it may be to lose, we still benefit from the lessons of our loss. It doesn’t hurt that we have a snow day to relish while we reflect! Until next week, racket players!

This winter, Ms. Bouchard’s Grade 5 class partnered with Lifebridge North Shore River House Shelter to deliver warm clothes, toiletries, first aid supplies, and gift cards to those in need. The shelter works with approximately three hundred people each day, and students have been hard at work collecting these items in order to help Lifebridge North Shore support those who are unable to get these materials on their own.

Sorry for the late post: Proud to announce a solid win for Shore this week at Myopia against Brookwood! Our less experienced players took to the court this time around, and they delivered consistent serves and fierce shots to earn the victory. Along the way, they earned valuable minutes learning how to navigate the close proximity with their opponent, how to score their own points, and even how to call lets. Big praise for a strong performance!
