Would like to thank our generous sponsors for supporting this program and

“we encourage our students, parents and families to support them!”

Current events 

   


The Sports for Kids after-school program is designed to engage grade 7 to 9 students in a variety of sports and athletic endeavors during the 2009- 2010 school year at Five Bridges Junior High School. In the coming weeks, students and parents will be notified of program details and how students and parent volunteers can apply.

The program’s success is based on sponsorship support from companies in our local community who understand the importance of providing extra curricular activities to students who for the most part are not actively involved in major sports within the school. Based on the support we receive from our sponsors we plan to offer a wide variety of sports and activities such as, but not limited to ice hockey, basketball, volleyball, soccer, skiing, wrestling, touch football, fitness classes, dance, table tennis, and road hockey at local community venues including St. Margaret’s Centre in addition to our school.
 
We recognize our sponsors are generously supporting our students in a worthwhile program, a healthier alternative to spending time doing less enriching activities. Therefore, sponsor support will impact directly on our students, parents, volunteers and teachers in a fun, healthy and community building environment.


Since the “Sports for Kids” program will provide many of our students the opportunity to participate in a variety of sports, in return, it is important the school, students, parents and teachers recognize our sponsors’ support. This can be achieved by making many of our purchases at our sponsors’ locations!
 
Volunteers will also needed to assist in driving students to various venues or to help out overseeing some of the activities. Please contact either of us to find out more about volunteering!
