White Woods Public School students enjoyed participating in a friendly ball hockey tournament for elementary school students in West Nipissing.
The first-ever Winter Ball Hockey Classic was held Feb. 12 in Sturgeon Falls, hosted by École élémentaire catholique La Résurrection, in partnership with Conseil scolaire catholique Franco-Nord. The friendly tournament invited all French-language and English-language elementary schools in the West Nipissing community, bringing together students in Grades 4 to 8.
The event took place at La Résurrection with outdoor playing surfaces in the school parking lot as well as a closed section of the adjacent Third Street.
NNDSB’s White Woods Public School participated with teams from Grade 4/5 and Grade 6/7/8 who gave it their all in the friendly inter-board tournament.
La Résurrection’s gymnasium served as a warm-up area where students were treated to hot chocolate and pizza in a friendly environment to relax between games.
NNDSB thanks École élémentaire catholique La Résurrection and Conseil scolaire catholique Franco-Nord for the invitation to this fun event and is already looking forward to next year!
