Leah's initiative



I raised money for free the children by doing chores around the house and finding change around my house. I raised $9.10 for free the children and am still going to collect through out the year.

Green Squad

Green Squad is a group that focuses on how we can improve and protect our environment. This also ties in with the We Take Charge campaign. Students  become creative by using technology or using paper to convince students in their community to respect the Earth and to be litter-less.

WE TAKE CHARGE campaign 


We have this blog to persuade you to environmentally friendly choices as well as document our journey.
Although me, Justin Abigail are all different, we all have one desire, one interest, on goal and that is to make our world a better place and to stop global warming. We need all the help we can get and that means you have to join us.
You can help by instead of buying the small packaged things for convenience buy one big package and separate it into reusable containers.  Its hard to think how much one person could help, believe me I've thought the same.  Every big number is made with little ones.

The Green Squad made a flag to represent every student's pledge to be environmentally friendly.





Halloween Haunted House

The garde 6 students were part of the props by hiding and popping out to scare the visitors in the Haunted House. We collected around $89 for the Free The Children and many food items for the Kanata Food Bank to contribute to We Scare Hunger.

Create Change- Cardboard Challenge Games





For "We Create Change" grade 6 students created electric games to collect money donations. They came up with creative ideas and invited their school community after school hours to play them. Donations were collected when people entered the arcade.

We Scare Hunger 2015



For the month of October, the students of St.Gabriel school donated food for the Ottawa Food Cupboard. This also supported the campaign "We Scare Hunger". The grade 6's took action by putting up posters and encouraging students to bring in food to help others. They helped load the food donated into vehicles that would take it to the Ottawa Food Cupboard. They still encourage students to bring food even though the event is over.
