Seven senior high athletes from Barrington Municipal High School, and Coach Katie Thurber, spent the past several days in Toronto, representing our community as part of Team Nova Scotia at the inaugural Nike High School Track and Field Grand Prix. The girls, as well as athletes from Parkview Education Center, Dalbrae Academy and Dr. John Hugh Gillis High School, were chosen by the Nova Scotia Schools Athletic Federation to form Team Nova Scotia at the Meet, which was held at the University of Toronto from May 10-13.
The girls competed in track and field competitions against athletes from 9 provinces and 3 territories, as well as attending symposiums with Olympic athletes, and participating in educational tours of Toronto. The competition was broadcast via Ustream, and many parents, students, coaches and fellow track athletes from the BMHS community spent Saturday in front of their computers, watching in awe as the girls represented Nova Scotia.
Special thanks are extended by the girls to the TCRSB for supporting their endeavors, the NSSAF for selecting the team, and School Sport Canada and Nike for event organization and sponsorship. Also, community members and businesses in Shelburne County provided a huge contribution, allowing the girls to fundraise the entire $5200.00 in expenses required for them to compete.

Shelburne MLA and cabinet minister Sterling Belliveau visited Shelburne Regional High School April 30th to formally open the expanded Skilled Trades Program. SRHS is the only school in the TCRSB taking part in the program that was rolled out in February of 2009 with Skilled Trades 10. In 2010 Construction Trades 11 was added to the program.
This year the Skilled Trades area was renovated to accommodate the addition of Transportation Trades 11 which teaches male and female students the basics of automobile mechanics. Mr. Belliveau stated, "By providing quality programs in state-of-the-art centres in high schools across the province, we are letting students explore the trades in a hands-on, minds-in way."
The province, with the support of the Tri-County School Board, has provided the skilled trades centre with renovations, new tools and equipment and storage space.
“The idea behind these courses is to give students a chance to look at the trades as a possible career option,” said John Drish, Coordinator of Trades Integration with the Department of Education. The courses, said Drish, are 110 hours each, are taught by certified instructors and accrue academic credits.
The Transportation Trades 11 course is introducing students to career options such as an automotive service technician and motorcycle mechanic. The course was designed by industry professionals and allows students to work on the same cars, engines and equipment, with the same tools and materials used by professional automotive service technicians.
SRHS student Andy VanBuskirk said, "It gives us an opportunity to get away from a desk and learn some real life skills."
"Skilled Trades are providing our students with the opportunity to experience a level of professionalism and real life simulation of the work place," said school principal, Mary Manning. "It is also encouraging to see the number of young women who are enrolling in the courses. This has certainly opened up new possibilities for students."
The province has funded extensive renovations in high schools to create Skilled Trade centres which are fully equipped with tools and equipment. Students are also provided appropriate personal protective equipment such as hard hats, safety glasses and safety shoes. | | |
