Class of 2017 Graduation Guide

|
Parents, we would love your assistance with p
ictures of your student for our graduation slideshow! We would love to get about 3-5 pictures of each student: one of them as a baby/toddler/preschooler, one recent photo and a few others of them that you'd like to share. I will be coordinating with our yearbook advisor, so if you've already sent some pictures to her, I will borrow those.
All photos need to be in no later than May 4th to be included in the slide show.
Thank you!

Faith in Action -
Stations of the Cross
Our students in both 7th and 8th grades had the opportunity to "work"  through the Stations of the Cross during Holy Week. In this joint effort between NC's Theology and PE Departments, our students were challenged with a physical element as they prayed the stations. This combination was intended to prompt a deeper recognition of Christ's challenges on Good Friday.

National Wrestling and Swimming Tournaments
|
|
|
 8th grader, Jesse Brochu recently traveled to Virginia Beach to compete in the 2017 Wrestling Nationals. Jesse, a member of the Nashua Catholic wrestling team, was there representing his other club from Smitty's Wrestling Barn in Kingston, NH.
At the tournament, Jesse was wrestling in the 100 lbs. weight class. His bracket had over 120 wrestlers competing. In his first round contest, Jesse took on the #5 seeded wrestler in the country, and was able to come out with an upset victory to further advance in the tournament. At the end of the weekend, Jesse finished as a top 24 wrestler in the nation.
This was his first time competing at Nationals, and he says he "had a lot of fun and was happy to get this opportunity." Jesse is hoping to wrestle for BG next year.
NC 7th grade student, John MacFarlane swims for Pride Swimming out of the Boys & Girls Club. John's swimming times qualified him for the 2017 Boys & Girls Club National Swim Championships in St. Petersburg, FL.
John made the finals in all 9 events he swam and came home with 3 medals and 4 ribbons. His best individual event was the 50 yard Breaststroke where he placed 6th overall. His relay teams placed 4th and 5th out of all the teams participating. Congratulations, John!
