On Monday, February 26th, Ross Road students had the opportunity to learn about Canada’s national summer sport – lacrosse. Coaches and players from North Shore Minor Lacrosse hosted a demonstration, and our students had the opportunity to throw a ball around and learn the basics of the game.  Classes from kindergarten through Grade 5 also learned about the origins of lacrosse, and how the game was played by First Nations peoples before the arrival of colonists to North America.  It was a fun and educational experience for everyone.  A huge thank you to Ross Road parent and lacrosse coach Steve Archer for hosting the demo!
