Students were given the opportunity to take part in a schoolwide photo/art contest. Categories included, digital print, painting and drawing. Prizes were awarded at each grade level for each category. An impartial judge from outside the school was invited in to make the final decisions and the prizes and pictures were awarded at a morning assembly. All art work is displayed in the cafetoriam for parents to see at Parent/Teacher night. Our judge was very impressed with the quality of work submitted and it was not easy to select our winners.

A Take 10 for Breakfast Program was recently launched at EWG. Since many of our students are bussed a long distance and our wellness survey indicates that many youth today are skipping that most important meal of the day we have set up a breakfast basket in the cafeteria. It will include, toast, jam, butter, yogurt, apples and oranges. It will be accessible in the morning up to the playing of O'Canada. Student volunteers will be helping out but it will be up to the individual to make their own toast or help themselves to a piece of fruit or yogurt.
