Planting the Seed

Learning about Species at Risk
Teams from Gananoque HS, North Grenville HS, Rideau District HS, North Dundas HS and St. Mary’s HS participated in 2019.
Students are assigned to teams where they compete against other for total points over the day by answering a subject quiz based on the knowledge they learned that day.
Winning Team
St. Mary’s High School Team 1 was the overall winner.
Congratulations to team members Erin Bolger, Jared Elliot, Sam Fahrngruber, Jackson McNeilly, and Mark Meeson from St Mary. All the teams did very well this year and seemed to really enjoy the day.
