Gretna Green hosted four teachers all the way from Holland today. They were given a tour of the media room and were featured as guest announcers for today's announcements. A follow up meeting was then arranged with Mme Gallant and Mr. Comeau to plan school partnerships and future projects.
Our gazebo has been fully completed. Harold Simmons most recently put the finishing touches on this great structure. Yet, we are still not finished. This awesome gazebo needs a name. Please take the time and vote on what you feel would be the best name found on our poll of this page. Congratulations to all of our student finalists who had their names selected for the final choice.

Ohhhhh, sounds like a "spooktacular" week at Gretna Green!
Another soccer season has come and gone but the great memories will linger forever. Our school team put forth a strong effort in their year end jamboree today and placed third after a gruelling four consecutive games. They should be proud of their undefeated regular season record and strong showing in today's jamboree. Mr. Ryan, Mr. Cabel and Mme Gallant also deserve a round of applause for their excellent coaching efforts, bravo!
