HoS Highlights: December Cheers!
Dear VERSO Community,
Congratulations to everyone on finishing off the first semester on such a high note. It has been an extremely successful school year thus far as VERSO continues to grow and flourish. A warm welcome again to our new families who joined us this school year. I hope that VERSO has been everything you expected and more. We look forward to further growth as we welcome new learners in January 2025. Please welcome these new families into our VERSO community.
A big thank you and congratulations to the entire community for WinterFest. It was a wonderful community event and we have all of you to thank for it. From games, to rides, to food, to performances, to fundraising, it was a magnificent event. I especially want to thank the VERSOnians for their time and effort with planning, bringing in so many great prizes, and helping to run the day. It could not have happened without you. What a fantastic way to finish off the semester!
Congratulations again to the U11 boys team for winning the GBAC Championship Tournament. For those who were there it was an exciting game. Also, congratulations to the U13 boys for securing 2nd place in the GBAC Championship Tournament. They fought their hearts out and came up just short of the win. Our U15 girls team will play in January at VERSO for the GBAC championship, Go Vipers!
