Trips and Special Events

Grade 5 returned from an eventful day in our nation’s capital- Ottawa Ontario. The boys visited the museum of art, parliament, Changing of the guards, bowling and more. The trip was a combination of great fun and viewing monumental sites-what a trip!

Grade 6 was shocked to hear they are off to white water rafting! They really enjoyed the overflowing rapids and came back with exhilarating stories to share.

Last night- the action continued with a special event for section C followed by a Schnitzel event for the hard-working staff!

Grade 4 is off today on their adventure in a Laval amusement place-while the staff are out for a staff trip- an opportunity to relax and enjoy a bit on their own- in the neighboring, beautiful Tremblant resort.

Plans are underway for another amazing Shabbos here in the Rebbe’s camp- Shabbos Nachamu!

Good Shabbos

The excitement never stops here! Grade 6 had an amazing time alternating between kayaking to mini golf at Lac Dessert, and busing back, combining adventure and fun on the water and greens.
