YOU ARE INVITED

We will be celebrating our graduands at a special Mass with the entire school on Wednesday, May 24 at 11:30. This Mass will be in honour of our 2023 grad class, and we would like to extend an invitation to all the parents, homestays, and whomever else you would like to invite. This is an opportunity for the school, specifically our students, to celebrate our graduands. However, we are opening the Mass to the Immac community should anyone be available to attend. Please note that this Mass is in addition to the Grad Ceremony and Mass at the end of June which is meant for grads and families. We are excited to have what will hopefully become a new tradition at Immaculata where the entire school community is able to celebrate our grads.

MUSTANG THEATRE COMPANY PRESENTS

Our Drama 8/9 students have been working hard to create some fantastic performances of some of your favourite sitcoms. Let’s check the lineup on TV Wednesday, May 24 and Thursday, May 25. From 7 – 9 pm

The Facts of Life “Take My Finals, Please” – Jo, Blair, Nat and Tootie all try to pull an all-nighter to study for final exams against Mrs. Garrett’s wishes.

The Golden Girls “It’s a Miserable Life” – Rose wants to save a beautiful old tree with the help of roommates Dorothy, Blanche and Sofia, but a miserable curmudgeon stands in their way. 

The Big Bang Theory “The Barbarian Sublimation” – Penny is swept up into the world of video gaming and it is up to Sheldon, Leonard, Raj and Howard to save her from turning into one of them.

Everybody Loves Raymond “Annoying Kid” – Ray goes toe to toe with an annoying kid to the dismay of wife Debra who just wants to be friends with the child’s parents instead of spending her evenings with Ray’s parents Frank and Marie.

Don’t miss out on this fun event! Tickets are selling fast! 

THE STORY: A playground altercation between eleven-year-old boys brings together two sets of Brooklyn parents for a meeting to resolve the matter. At first, diplomatic niceties are observed, but as the meeting progresses, and the rum flows, tensions emerge and the gloves come off, leaving the couples with more than just their liberal principles in tatters.

Winner of the 2009 Tony Award for Best Play. "[A] streamlined anatomy of the human animal…delivers the cathartic release of watching other people go boom. A study in the tension between civilized surface and savage instinct, this play is itself a satisfyingly primitive entertainment." —NY Times. "Elegant, acerbic and entertainingly fueled on pure bile. It's Reza's sharpest work since 'Art'." —Variety. "Brutally entertaining…in another of Christopher Hampton's exquisite translations, [Reza] cannily manipulates social observations that appeal to vast audiences and creates characters that bring out the best in actors." —NY Newsday. "Reza has established herself as a master [of] magnificently constructed plays." —Entertainment Weekly.

Come see our Theatre Production 11/12 class put on a seriously hilarious performance. May 31, June 1 and 2 at 7 pm in our own Old Barn Black Box Theatre.

Jessika attended Ecole Glenmore Elementary before graduating from St. Joseph Elementary and coming to Immac in grade 8. Some of her fondest memories of Immac include the arts, field trips, the grad show, being on student council, and much more. She is grateful for the small community at Immac which allows for teachers to give one on one support, for students to know who everyone is, and her grad class to have become close. In the fall Jessika will attend UBCO to start a Bachelor of Arts. Her long-term goals include creative writing or political science.  #Immacgrads2023

Connor came to Immaculata from OLOL Elementary. Some of his favourite memories of high school are the sport trips and extracurricular activities. He is most grateful for Immac’s sports program and the small, yet student-centred classes. This summer you’ll find him working to save up for film school and capturing every moment along the way. In the fall, Connor hopes to attend the Film program at the Centre for Arts and Technology in Kelowna, in his pursuit of becoming a cinematographer.
