On Wednesday, Nov. 10 our PAC and students held a very successful Stone Soup Supper for our school community and related community members.  Amy Plemel, Bernadette Wells and Brandi MacDonald cooked the Stone Soup from vegetables brought by every class.  Brandi MacDonald and Ms Gauthier’s class organized the event and decorated the gym.  Don Testawitch made bannock to go with the soup.  Student helpers Josh Anderson and Mason MacDonald welcomed everyone to the supper while Hayden Alyward helped serve juice and coffee.  Bonnie Anderson read the story of Stone Soup while Rebekah Anderson showed the story through magnetic pictures.  Danna Testawitch read another version of Stone Soup to students during the evening.  Thank you to all who helped make the evening so successful!
