Media Class


Mr. Mani took his Media class outside today-- they went to Clayton Park which is next to the school.  The weather was cold but the benefit was that the natural sunlight was excellent for digital photography.

Remembrance Day Ceremony @ CSS Today


I want to thank our veterans for participating in the Chatelech Secondary School Remembrance Day Ceremony. It was great to hear from veterans, teacher Mr. Jeff Marshall and Mr. Ian Williams.

The CSS Band did a great job as did the Flag party. 

It is a ceremony that was very meaningful and gave us a chance to ponder about those who gave their lives for our freedom.

Girls' Volleyball vs ESS


Our senior girls' team was in tough vs a strong Elphinstone squad in tonight's match. I had to go to our PAC Meeting so I did not get a chance to get the final score.

Have a good evening.

We had a number of representatives from various post secondary institutions at CSS today for our annual PSI Day.  It is an excellent way for our senior students to get relevant information about various post-secondary school options.
