2021-2022 Awards Assembly

All of Greenwood gathered together in the gym for our Awards Assembly on Wednesday, June 15. At the assembly, we celebrated the achievements and accomplishments of the award recipients for Arts, Athletics and Leader by Example. The bronze and silver level Duke of Edinburgh’s Award recipients also received recognition during the assembly.

Ms. Bruce began the assembly noting that success is not only measured by crossing the finish line first or earning a great mark. Success also comprises smaller moments of commitment and practice that help shape each of our individual journeys. While the award recipients have contributed greatly both in and outside of the classroom throughout the school year, Ms. Bruce also paid tribute to the dedication and perserverance of all Greenwood students despite all the additional challenges posed by COVID-19. 

The students honoured at the Awards Assembly have all pushed their boundaries in and out of the classroom this year - whether by working behind the scenes on a school play, volunteering on a committee or putting in hard work on the field. And in doing so, they have made an incredibly positive impact on our community.

In recognition of their outstanding contributions to the arts, we recognized one student from each grade between Grades 7–11 and two students from the graduating Class of 2022. The recipients of the Arts Award are:
