Dear Nicole and Gemma,

It is my duty to inform you in what really happens in the awesome class of Grade Seven. First of all
Do Not laugh @ the word "Duty". In grade 7, there is a lot of jobs that we grade sevens do to give back to the school... For example Juice Boxes, Monitoring and taking charge @ School events. You guys might be wondering...

"What do the awesome & totally cool gr.7's do all day?" Well let me tell you, as leaders of the school we are really really busy.. At some points when were super bust we unfortunately have to skip some subjects...Which is good for us, however bad for Mr. D. Speaking of Mr. Dotto, He <3's style="font-weight: bold;">Unlucky person.

The Grade Seven class isn't all fun and games. Most of the time we have to be really focused at big events, we also have to be responsible. Gr.7 is the year of leadership. We got to show all the younger kids what to do and what to act at Church or School events. By doing something so irresponsible and mindless would just let the primary kids think its okay when it was clearly not.

Something so simple as lining up at the pole after recess can show leadership. And I know that my class FAILED at that, but I think your class has got a chance.

Religion was big thing this year...well of course we had our Confirmation. Socials was huge as well, first they was the Ancient City Night, where we had to make a model city and write a report as well......then there is Roman City Night.

Grade Seven is a tough year for us..I mean most of you guys been In St.Ed's since kindergarten and its your last year as a class together, so you wanna spend a lot of time together not as a class, but as a Family<3.....I realized that my class has gotten closer than before! back then we were kinda of in groups, and now were this one big family.........Did I mention that in Grade Seven you dont have to do handwriting! I know it's of topic, but that all we do here in Gr.7, we're always of topic....So Good Luck you guys and have fun becuz Gr.7 is an awesome year............

Sincerely,
Karissa A.
The most awesomest Grade Sevener alive

!!!!!!!TOP TEN BEST MOMENTS!!!!!!

Evan's Lake was so so so A-W-E-S-O-M-E-E-E! I had a great time there and it really sucks that its over =(. Although we still have our memories.And that's why it is
MY TOP TEN FAVORITE MOMENTS AT EVAN'S LAKE.

10. CABIN INSPECTIONS
The cabin Inspections were so fun because we had to do many different things to impress the teachers.For examples Mr.Dotto likes Pirates so we sent Julimei to buy some eye patches and swords and we did dramas for Miss.Grossi because she's the drama teacher that included the swords and eye patches for Mr.Dotto. Gemma also found some ways to get the teachers attention like cleaning their shoes or bribing them with FAKE money.

9. DECORATING THE CABIN
Decorating the cabin was as much fun as the cabin inspections.What we had to do was to decorate the cabin in a theme or just make it as homey as possible. And by doing that you get to spend time and get to know your cabin mates.

8. ARCHERY
Archery was so exciting, when I shot I felt like Paris of Troy for some reason.The reason why it's my 8Th best is because I truly sucked at it....Believe me I'm the worst....However at least I tried, None of my cousins have never EVER tried archery so I'm considered lucky...REAL lucky.

7. FLASHLIGHT TAG
Flashlight tag was one of the highlight parts of the whole trip and it was totally awesome.What we had to do was to basically play tag in the dark with a flashlight. And at one part Jessica,Juliana,Kristopher and I had some VERY SCARY SCARY MOMENTS, and it the heck out of me!!!!

6. PLAYING BADMINTON AND VOLLEYBALL DURING FREE TIME
Now this was a blast! The whole day was super fun but this was the cherry on top with sprinkles because the days was just to tiring because of ALL THAT FUN!

5.HIKING
Hiking was so cool,we had a 2 hour hike going up some rocks and slants and yet that wasn't the most difficult hike I've ever had. During that hike I saw many cool things like a garden snake in its real habitat.

4.SKIT NIGHT
Skit Night was right before Flashlight Tag, and our last evening activity, and all the cabins were ggrrreeeaaaattttt (great). However ours sucked...Everybody did skits they were great, we did a remake of In the Jungle But Evan's Lake Style....POO I DON'T EVEN THINK THAT WAS IN THE JUNGLE!

3.EATING THE FOOD
OMJ!!!! The food at Evan's Lake was so so so so so so DELICIOUS...DANG I wanna go back there.We had things such as.....Chicken and Rice,Chicken Burgers,
Tortellini,pancakes,Waffles mmmmmm WAFFLES!

2.CANOEING
Sorry to repeating this again but OMJ. Canoeing was the best experience EVER!!! I go canoeing every summer but to experience it with my classmates that was cool.

AND FINALLY.......NUMMBAAAA OOONNNEEEE!!!!!

1. !!!!SLEEPING!!!!

This is probably unusual, but sleeping was my number 1 best moments because of all those activities and doing it again in the morning was exhausting....And I treasured every hour of sleep, even though I barely got any!


Well those have been my TOP TEN BEST MOMENTS OF EVAN'S LAKE...

!! Confirmation Retreat !!

!!Confirmation Retreat!!


National
Evangelists
Team

well i think???

Well on the 24th of March,we had our Confirmation Retreat,and let me tell you it was fun.We were able to a spiritual yet have an awesome day with my classmates! The NET people were friendly and funny. They did skits that were so hilarious,for example: give Betsey give the baby's gotta live! my favorite part was the Star Wars themed "Bless us O Lord" that was awesome I could do that prayer forever. But right after the awesomely fun things we did it started to get serious,spiritual,and to some tear jerking. It was the most perfect time to talk to god in a time of need.We had the opportunity to have a confession as well as a class mass. I totally thought that the retreat was a great experience and I really hope we get to do it again!
