Elementary Construction Skills Ontario Qualifier event takes place at IEWSS

I.E. Weldon Secondary School recently hosted another Trillium Lakelands District School Board (TLDSB) Skills Ontario Qualifier event–this time for elementary students!

On April 1, Grade 7 and 8 students from elementary schools across the Board competed against each other for a spot at the provincial competition in Toronto taking place in May.

This event focused on the construction sector, and tasked students with preparing, designing, and building a scaled down version of a house with a set amount of materials.

The results:

  • First place – Irwin Memorial Public School
  • Second place – Jack Callaghan Public School
  • Third place – Parkview Public School

Congratulations and good luck to the Irwin students who are moving on to the provincial competition!
