On May 6th, 2009 Athabasca School hosted 4 other schools for a Celebration Event which included gardening and agriculture related sessions, lunch, and presentations with songs and skits. They also hosted special guests from Heifer International as well as the Minister of Environment, Honourable Nancy Heppner, the Minister of Education, Honourable Ken Krawetz, and the Minister of Agriculture, Honourable Bob Bjornerud. The students proudly showed off their Little Green Thumbs, and everyone had a fantastic time.
