'Uy' Netulh~ |Good Morning,

We would like to acknowledge that we gather on the ancestorial and unceded territory of the Hul'q'umi'num and SENCOTEN speaking people. In our futures we strive to connect deeper with this community, always have respect for living things and always share these learnings wherever we can. A territorial acknowledgment is not something to get out of way, but a small act of apology that can hopefully inspire deeper and more meaningful change through reconciliation and understanding.

Congrats to the Jr girls Black Volleyball team for a strong showing this past weekend at the Belmont Tournament. The team continues to work hard and figure things out, and have been showing steady improvement. Their next tournament is coming up this weekend at Oak Bay. Go Scorpions!

Six of our athletes took to the water this weekend to tackle the challenging 6.5 km course.
