Shawnigan staff received an enthusiastic round of applause at Staff Appreciation Day on Tuesday.
After treating the staff to sumptuous cupcakes in the morning, the Shawnigan Parents Association teamed up with students to pay tribute to all employees at an afternoon function in old gym.
Featuring speeches, a slideshow, and a performance from the choir, the event was all the more rewarding for staff knowing that students had prepared the events (mostly) by themselves.
Of course, while they praised the teaching and coaching staff, the presenters also acknowledged the vital roles played by the administration and all of the wonderful support staff.
We acknowledge with respect the Coast Salish Peoples on whose traditional lands and waterways we live, learn and play. We are grateful for the opportunity to share in this beautiful region, and we aspire to healthy and respectful relationships with those who have lived on and cared for these lands for millennia.
