VCHS Dishes out Festive Cheer

Rosanne Fortier News Correspondent

The sights, sounds, and tastes of the festive season were in abundance at the Vegreville Composite High School (VCHS) Christmas Lunch at the VCHS on December 19.

During the festive lunch, Sky Hoffos, Construction and Art teacher performed a couple of tunes with student Shade Clark. Student Mate Lapierre, sang Carol of the Bells by Madame Macbre and student Grayson Luka, entertained everyone with Christmas jokes. Since this was an Open Mic, a few more teachers and students performed during that session.

Assistant Principal Mrs. Warawa said they started this event last year to provide a free festive meal for all of their students. “We were able to provide this because of the donations from all of our community sponsors.”

Many community members were also in attendance. Some of the special guests included: Vegreville Mayor Tim MacPhee, Vegreville town councilor Ann Waters, School Resource Officer Mrs. Hansen,

RCMP Cst. Jason Lappa and several of his colleagues ,Community Peace Officers Ken Podoborozny and Garret Perepeluk, and Fish and Game Officer Mike Hewitt.
