Welcome back to school staff and students. Once again there are many changes to the staff and events happening at Elsipogtog School. We ask everybody to check our site often as we will do our best to keep everybody up to date. First major event is the Teacher Meet and Greet next Tuesday the 20th. Stay tuned for details.
Grade 3 had a special guest visit their classes today, Kurrgan (Robert Maillet). From Bouctouche, former WWF wrestler and now actor answered hundreds of questions from some real excited students. He even had a few moves for Mr. Savoy!
We are honoured and very blessed to have won the Staples Superpower Your School Contest! Thank you to all the students, staff and community members for their hard work and dedication to the Elsipogtog Community and Mother Earth.
