Thank You for Supporting Jump Rope for Heart

We are proud to share that our HMS community raised $770 for Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada through this year’s Jump Rope for Heart campaign. Thank you for your incredible generosity and support.

Students kicked things off with an energetic assembly that got everyone moving and excited about heart health. Throughout the campaign, classes practiced their skipping skills daily in PE, building endurance, coordination, and healthy habits.

Our students did a fantastic job promoting the fundraiser with enthusiastic announcements and spirit boosters tied to our school-wide incentives. Thanks to students’ efforts, they earned an extra recess, a PJ Day, and the much-anticipated opportunity for students to pie a few teachers in the face.

Most importantly, our students learned about the importance of caring for their hearts while showing teamwork, perseverance, and community spirit. We are so grateful to our families and staff for helping make this event such a success.

Student Leadership Update | Olympic Spirit Continues

Our Student Leadership Club has kicked off Olympic excitement at Haultain with a fantastic Torch Relay and an amazing sea of red and white for Team Canada Day. Thank you for showing such incredible school spirit.

As we continue cheering on Canada at the Olympics, students can still look forward to:

Daily Olympic Trivia at 11:00 AM. Listen carefully and call in your class answers.
A Collaborative Olympic Display with a current medal count and each grade contributing to our growing showcase.
Friday, February 20 Athlete Day - Dress as an athlete or wear your favourite sport gear to celebrate teamwork and perseverance.

We are proud of the enthusiasm, encouragement, and positive energy students have shown so far. As we continue the celebration, we will keep modelling Courage by trying new things, supporting one another, and showing pride in our HMS community.

Let’s keep the Olympic spirit strong. Go Team Canada!
