Dear Grant MacEwan Families 

Some of our grade 6 students participated in the Kiwanis Diversity Cup Soccer tournament over the weekend. Both the boys and girls teams were very successful and displayed great effort and sportsmanship along with some excellent goalkeeping, goal scoring and overall great team soccer. Thanks to Ms. Wlasuk, Mr. Clarke and Mr. Sparkes for their time to coach our students. Thanks to all the parents and family members who came out and supported our players.
