Hey Flames, did you know that close to one million tons of e-waste are thrown away every year in Canada alone?
STA’s Enviro-club is bringing electronic recycling to our school. This means that you can bring in any old or broken electronic devices to the new e-recycling boxes, which are located in the chaplaincy office, just off the forum, and in room 119. This includes phones, keyboards, printers, computers, laptops, iPads, batteries, or any other e-waste.
For more information visit the Enviro-club website @environmentalsta.com.

Congratulations to the Jr Girl’s Volleyball team on their 3 and 0 win against SAB last night. The team came together and worked hard to defend their undefeated season so far- Great serving from Mikaila, passing from Bianka, and quicks from Lucy. Congrats team and enjoy your well-earned break!
Congratulations to the senior girls’ volleyball team on a routine win last night at SAB. The girls dominated the entire match with the result never in doubt. Grace Shackleton had smart attacks all game, and Keira Brown led the way with great passing. Arianna Van Dorst had terrific serving all night that SAB had no answer to.
The win puts our girls at 5-1 with a big match at Laurier on our first day back from the break.
Roll flames.
