Riccardi's Band and Chorus Concert
Although band members only started playing together in September, their collaboration skills were extremely impressive. Audience members especially enjoyed the band’s rendition of “Hard Rock Blues.” The chorus dazzled concert-goers with three specially-chosen traditional songs. Including the class favorite of "Mac'n' Cheese." A great time was had by all who attended!

Camden Sauer, a Grade 1 student at Riccardi Elementary School, was eating an orange in his classroom when something went terribly wrong. A slice got lodged in his throat. That’s when a quick-thinking teaching assistant stepped in and performed the Heimlich maneuver, which caused the slice to become dislodged.
