At Provincial Track and Field Meet in Saskatoon, Brody Slykhuis competed in the shot-putt event. Another GFK athlete, Branden Lequeyer, competed on the Southeast District Relay Team. Both students did a great job representing their school and their District.

The school also wanted to congratulate Kyle Sargent. At the Carnduff Regional Meet, Kyle broke the bantam boy triple jump record with a jump of 10.4 meters. He was also awarded the bantam boy aggregate medal.

The Grade 10 Big Muddy Trip was on June 7 and 8. Details will be in next week's submission.

Grade 12 students are getting excited for their Graduation Ceremonies which are coming up on Saturday, June 16, at the rink. The exercises are open to the public. They begin at 7:30.
