Rendell Park students celebrated the last day of school with a morning of fun outdoor activities on June 28 followed by noon dismissal.

Grade 4 students Alora Carter, Lilly Phipps, and Courtney Read were in high spirits as they recalled a few things they enjoyed during the school year.

“I liked being a milk monitor and gym time is fun,” said Carter, adding she’s looking forward to summer break and an upcoming trip to Edmonton.

Phipps said she was looking forward to attending summer camp and going on a trip to Banff.

“My favourite thing about this year was the dance parties,” she exclaimed.

“I’m excited to go to Fairmont and seeing my cousins at the lake,” said Read, adding her favourite things about school were being a milk monitor and doing math.

Grade 4 teacher Ashley Schneider said it was a good year, adding it’s the first year where all activities were back to their usual format since the pandemic.

“We were able to have assemblies all together, our Carnival in February, and a normal in-person Christmas concert with par - ents able to attend,” said Schneider.

LPSD schools will resume classes on Sept. 5, following the Labour Day long weekend.
