​The Grade 4 to 8 class at Garden Plane Colony School were challenged by their teacher to read 150 chapter books, as a group, between January and the end of June. The students read more than 150 books!​

​On Friday, June 16th, Shaunavon Public School hosted their first "Colour Run". The event was organized by the Grade 7 class and their teacher as part of a legacy project to raise funds to purchase hockey nets for the school. There were 3 different colour stations set up around town run by parents, Grade 7 students and volunteers from the community. The event was a great success!​

​Chinook School Division is pleased to join with your family, school and community in congratulating you on achieving this important milestone. We wish you success in the future!​

​Success School has been celebrating Canada’s 150th birthday for the last couple of months by singing our national anthem and answering weekly Canadian trivia questions for prizes. On June 16th we wore our red, white and Canadian gear, designed pennants of Canadian themed items in our team building groups to hang in the school, and took a group “150” photo. A parent generously donated coin holders from the Mint, for each student to collect the commemorative Canada 150 coin collection in. Happy Birthday Canada!

​On June 14, 2017 the Fox Valley School Wildlife 10 class went shore fishing as part of a unit on Fishing and the Aquatic Environment. It was very exciting to see three students who had never fished before actually catch their first fish. Special thanks to Conservation Officer Michael Banks from Leader Field Office who suggested fishing techniques, bait preferences, and location.​

​Students from Irwin School worked with their RCMP partners in the safety and traffic blitz in Swift Current on June 15. The Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) is a multi-agency task force focused on strategies to improve traffic safety in the Province of Saskatchewan.​
