SUPPORT OUR TROOPS: The Support Our Troops banner has graced the atrium wall since early November. As a school we came together to show our support for our troops and their families by signing the banner and displaying it in our atrium. The banner will be making the trip to Kandahar, Afghanistan this month with a Canadian soldier where it will be displayed at Canada House, a meeting place on the Kandahar Air Field for Canadian troops. Canadian Troops in Afghanistan will be able to read the signatures of the Mother Teresa students and feel our support. Thank you! (JK –Jun 3)
