Equipment Fitting

Tomorrow (Thursday, September 28th 2017), all WJHA students from Stevenson will be going to the Bell MTS Iceplex to be fitted for equipment. Each student will be assigned a bag and we will being the equipment back to the school. We will keep the equipment in our special hockey room attached to the large lunch room.

We will be picked up by a school bus at 12:00 pm and will be fed lunch at the Iceplex. We will be back around 2:30.

Students are encouraged to bring a book or colouring for while they are waiting for their turn.

Fan Fest!

What a fun day! When we arrived at the Bell MTS Iceplex, the lights were dimmed and blue lights were lighting up posters of the Winnipeg Jets. Some of the players were on the ice doing drills! Our first activity was a room that was filled with inflatable games; bouncers, slides, obstacle courses and jousting!

Next we got to upstairs in the "Press Box" restaurant for a delicious lunch! I was impressed that so many students were excited for their veggies! I think broccoli and carrots might have been the favourite!

Unfortunately we didn't have time for any more activities. Time flies when you are having fun!

Welcome Back!!

Welcome back to the returning hockey players this season and a very warm welcome to our new hockey players this year! I am so excited for the hockey season to start again!

If you have not returned your package of forms, please do so immediately because I need those permission forms for your child to attend Fan Fest this Friday.

Fan Fest is a special party for fans of the Winnipeg Jets held at the Bell MTS Iceplex! There will be games and activities and guest appearances by mascots and alumni. This is put on by the True North Youth Foundation. They will also be providing the students with a healthy lunch.

We will be leaving the school at 12:15 and will return by about 2:30. Since we are leaving after the school's scheduled lunch time, it would be a good idea to send a few snacks with your child that day so they aren't too hungry.

I have had a few questions about when hockey starts. I don't know the exact date at the moment. I will keep you posted as soon as I find out. It will be starting in October.
