Josie Kneller, Alyssa Kuefler and Jules Fetaz received the Sacrament of Confirmation at Christ King Church on May 13. This is a big step in the student’s’ faith journey and they have spent lots of weekends preparing for this throughout the year. Congratulations!

On May 31, 19 of our school’s grade 4 – 9 students headed off to Wainwright for the East Central Alberta Catholic Schools Track and Field Meet.
It was a very successful day for Theresetta considering the 25+ weather.

The Junior High students will continue practicing hard this week to prepare for their events as they will be participating in the CARA Track and Field Meet on June 12 in Stettler.
June is only going to get busier with upcoming events such as: field trips, end of the year mass, the CTS Drama class’s presentation of their play Little Red Riding and the Hoods, provincial achievement tests, and the Grade 9 farewell ceremony on the last day of school.
