Thanks to Barb Stickle and the Big Brothers-Big Sisters Program (whose office is situated in our school)... we hosted a visit from Donovan Bailey!
Our school focus is LITERACY... and Donovan spoke to our students on the NEED to READ and also to put everything you have into making your dreams come true!!!
We began his visit with an 'Honour Flute Song' from our dear friend Amanda Woodward!
Donovan was presented with an eagle feather... the highest honour one can receive. As Donovan 'flies like an eagle' when he runs... it was MOST appropriate!
This gift was also awarded to him for all he has done to be a MENTOR for children.
Donovan was an inspiring guest. We shared words of wisdom WITH him and FROM him!
As a special 'THANK YOU'... our dancers performed for him.
A special presentation was made to Donovan... from 2 of our BCR Family members.
Following an HONOUR SONG... we gave Donovan an exit to remember...
