Millarville Wildcats Basket Ball Season

Boys Basketball has been great at Millarville! We haven't won many games, but are trying hard to win the championships. We have been training quite a lot in hopes to win this season to get our first basketball banner for boys. In Girls Basketball we have won a few and lost a lot, but we had a lot of fun playing in the games.  We have hosted two tournaments and have improved at shooting and dribbling. Come and watch a thrilling and intense Millarville Wildcats Basketball game next year.

Snowshoe Disc Golf
The Grade 7 and 8 students went on Friday, February 11th to the WJ Homestead Snowshoe Disc golf course near Millarville. We were the first group as a school to go to the ranch in the snow and it was awesome! The snow was about a foot deep and everyone got a face full of snow! Thank-you to the WJ Homestead. We had a blast!

Outdoor Pursuits winter campout
On Friday February 11th the grade sevens went on an optional camping trip and made shelters with only a survival shovel and a tarp. That night we all slept outside in our shelters. There were four groups and only twelve people stayed the night. There was a campfire and we played snow golf and also roasted hotdogs. In the middle of the night a large aircraft went overhead and woke us up, but most of the students had a lot of fun, and a great experience.

Family Dance
February 10th, in the Millarville community school, we had an extraordinary night at our family dance. We held the dance to raise money for the Grade 8 grad and the extra money will go to the grade 6 trip to Edmonton, at the end of the school year. Over 220 people attended the dance and had a great time!
