Here’s How St. Patrick’s Day Was Celebrated Across HWDSB
Yesterday’s St. Patrick’s Day celebrations came in all shapes and sizes! We saw examples of students marking the occasion in schools as well as teachers joining in on the action from their remote classrooms. We also saw participation at both the elementary and secondary levels, proving that you are never too young or too old to feel Irish for a day.
Thank you to all the students, staff, schools, and families who shared their spirit on social media. Our feed was plastered with green and we enjoyed seeing all the festivities! Here are some of the highlights:

Happy St Patrick’s day! We shared our thoughts of what happened to my iced coffee… many Ss think I was visited by a leprechaun and he played a sneaky trick. Some think my dog got food colouring and did it! #StPatricksDay #remotelearning @HWDSB pic.twitter.com/XXpRhGTIUh

Today we celebrated all things green! During small groups we went on scavenger hunt, sounded out & wrote down the items we found. We read the story How to Trap a Leprechaun and gave our s’s some time to plan & build their own trap.Their work is incredible! #FDKremoteHWDSB @HWDSB pic.twitter.com/qqNUTMuBmW

Spent all day trying to #catchleprechauns that put clues all over our building…no luck. I did catch the #bestteachingpartner, so luck is on my side. @MsDavies_M = rock star, if you get to teach with her you will become a better teacher! @HWDSB @WHBallardnews @HWDSB_athletics pic.twitter.com/qBfPgeakUt
