The Grade 6 Charr Project was a great success! Everyone had lots of
fun, and we learned a few things on the way. The success was due to
so many people who donated their time, support and expertise in assisting
the Grade 6 Class. |

Grade 6 Class This is us posing for a crazy picture!! |
| The "Arctic Charr Project" required special funding for equipment and for an excursion. This funding was provided for by Gathering Strength, Brighter Futures, Makivik Corporation and Landholding of Kangiqsualujjuaq. We are thankful to all of these organizations for their support. The students also raised some of their own money within the school. |
