The students of GFK had a great time at the first ever Foam Dance. Last Friday they danced in 3 feet of bubbles while lasers flashed and foam floated from the ceiling. It was an amazing experience. Thanks to Miss Broberg, the SLT, and all the staff who chaperoned.
GFK and CES would like to invite the public to a FREE pancake breakfast on May 7th, 2015 to kick off our Pink Day at Gordon F. Kells school. We will be serving pancakes, sausages, coffee and juice from 8:00 am— 9:00 am. We would also like to also invite you to the Carlyle Memorial Hall at 7:30 p.m. where Dr. Eva Olsson will be giving a presentation to the community. Dr. Olsson, Holocaust survivor, uses the Holocaust and her experiences in it as a springboard to discuss the following key issues:
· The power of hate and the need to stop it when it occurs.
· The importance of not being a bystander when bad things are happening.
· The importance of having compassion and respect for self and others.
On Tuesday, April 28, the Rookie and Junior Pre-district Badminton Playoffs are in Oxbow.
