This year’s Student Council is pleased to announce the 46th Walk will be held on Thursday, September 19th at St. Paul’s High School. This is an annual fundraiser that brings together students from St. Paul’s High School, St. Mary’s Academy and Balmoral Hall. The Walk is an all-day event (9:00 am – 2:15 pm) that begins with attendance at St. Paul’s, a walk through Assiniboine Park, and concludes with entertainment and activities at St. Paul’s High School. Along the Walk route there will be refreshments and games. Upon returning, students can purchase food from the St. Paul’s cafeteria or attending food trucks, watch this year’s main entertainer, participate in a variety of games, bounce on inflatables, and more!
This event includes all students in Grades 9–12 from St. Paul’s, St. Mary’s Academy and Balmoral Hall School. To help make this event possible, a $13 fee will be required from all St. Paul’s students. The fee will help cover the cost of refreshments along the route, as well as the entertainment and activities throughout the day. A link at the end of this news item for the Permission Click form will allow parents/guardians to grant permission for their son(s) to participate in The Walk, sign a waiver/acknowledgement of risk form on their behalf, place an optional order for a 2024 Walk sweater ($33), and pay the $13 Walk participation free. Payments are only available to be made through Permission Click, no cash or cheque payments will be accepted unless there are extenuating circumstances. If there are, please contact Keana Rellinger (krellinger@stpauls.mb.ca) to assist with registration and payment. Registration and payment is due on Friday, September 13th, 2024.
The 2024–2025 Student Council has selected Kid Sport Manitoba to be the recipient of this year’s donations. Moved by Kid Sport’s commitment to equal and equitable access to sports, and their emphasis on encouraging youth to become and stay active, the Student Council is proud to support an organization that helps so many in our community. Attached to this letter is a pledge form for students to collect donations from their networks. This is an optional process but any participation is encouraged and greatly appreciated by both Student Council and Kid Sport. 100% of the funds collected are given directly to Kid Sport Manitoba, allowing them to deliver more grants to youth in Manitoba. Students who collect $100 or more in pledges will receive a free Walk sweater (sizes are first come, first served). We ask that all completed pledge forms are brought to student’s core group teacher no later than Friday, September 13th, 2024.

Sincerely,
2024–2025 Student Council Executive
Grad 2025 clothing orders are now open for the second time beginning today. Orders are placed online through the Carberry Website, and you will be notified once your order is available to pick up at St. Paul's as soon as they are in. Orders typically take around 4 weeks to arrive. Please place your order as soon as possible as the final date to order is September 16th. Thank you so much and please contact Kim at kmathew@stpauls.mb.ca if you have any questions.
The Crusader Shoppe is excited to welcome back the wonderful volunteers who have previously volunteered in the shoppe and we are very happy to welcome new volunteers this year. Volunteering in the shoppe is fun and it is a great way to meet other St. Paul's parents. There is absolutely no experience necessary and you will always be with someone else during your shift. Please click the following button to sign up for any upcoming shift of your choice and looking forward to seeing you all soon.
We have discovered that there is a manufacturing issue with our "new style" gym shorts. This involves a large quantity of shorts and Carberry International has been very cooperative and are working diligently with their supplier to rectify the issue with our shorts. Until this issue is resolved, students may wear alternate shorts to Phys Ed Class and once the new shorts have arrived, students can come to the crusader shoppe and switch out the shorts for a new pair. Thank you so much for your patience with this issue and please contact Kim Mathew at kmathew@stpauls.mb.ca if you have any other questions or concerns.
Mark your calendars for an exciting football game between the Varsity Crusaders and the Oak Park Raiders under the vibrant lights of Connolly Field!
Enjoy food trucks, face painting, music, beer gardens (18+) and celebrate with friends and family while cheering on the Crusaders! The Cru Shoppe will also be open!
Kick Off - 6:00 PM
