nov athletes
Congratulations to Sydney Vrbanac and Tyson Gingras who have been chosen as PCHS's Athletes of the month for November

Sydney is in grade 12. She plays basketball and soccer. In the basketball, she helped lead our Sr. team to OFSAA by playing outstanding defense that frustrates opponents.   On offense she is a fast break layup threat and outside shooter.  She plans to study Interior Design after graduating from high school.

Tyson Gingras is also in Grade 12 and was a key player on the Sr. Boys volleyball team where he played the position of power.  Coach MacGregor described Tyson as one of the hardest hitters on the team.   Tyson also helped lead the Sr. hockey team to their 3 on 3 tournament title and scored the game winning goal in the teams’ first exhibition game of the year.  Tyson is very coachable and is working hard to improve.    He plans to pursue a career in Policing after High school.
