The grade 9 @theyorkschool Prairies to Mountains trip has been in Alberta since Sunday. The group had been entertained by some very friendly and knowledgeable people from both Drumheller and Banff.
Dear @dhamilton_david, we regret to inform you that we have not finished our @theyorkschool challenge week assignment and require an extension. We feel that one more week in Banff will be sufficient to finish it. We will attend workspace in the mountains each day. #yorklearns
Meeting Banff councillor Barb Pelham, Iconic Lake Louise, the Sulphur Mountain gondola (pay no attention to the prescribed burn that went slightly haywire) and a night of bowling at High Rollers was our day with the grade 9 @theyorkschool Alberta trip. #yorklearns
@Deuxy81 The senators would definitely beat the Leafs in accuracy on the golf course. They get so much more time on the greens by not making the playoffs. #leafsforever
Bus rides can be long at times. We’ve been passing the time by documenting the many naps of @ICErgaio No one can nap on the bus like this guy. Twitter only lets you upload 4 photos at a time so stay tuned for further photo essays. #yorklearns#icenaps
The group arrived in Banff on Tuesday evening. While staying in the town, students are responsible for preparing their own meals. One group experienced the highs of a beautiful steak dinner and the low of an extremely burnt apple crumble. #yorklearns
This evening we hit up Bernie and the Boys for their famous burgers. @ICErgaio went for the double and it did not disappoint. Afterwards we were treated to a ghost walk of Drumheller. #yorklearns
The grade 9 @theyorkschool Alberta trip spent Monday afternoon at the Atlas Coal mine where we learned the role coal has had in the Drumheller valley over the years. #yorklearns
Yesterday the Alberta trip got acclimatized to the Badlands of Alberta with a hike in horse thief canyon. We also had a lot of fun on the bus. #yorlearns@MrEatonMath@ICErgaio@theyorkschool
After a 3 year hiatus, challenge week is back at @theyorkschool The grade 9 Alberta trip has kicked things off. Smooth flight to Calgary and we found our comfy ride for the week. Looking forward to hearing about everyone’s trip. #yorklearns@MrEatonMath
@YorkKillarney@MrEatonMath@banffcentre Happened last night. No pics though. It may happen again and I’ll be sure to get photographic evidence for your man-crush of him.
@hrswanson@MrEatonMath@SwampFox75@YorkKillarney The same old Travelodge. Perhaps I have received platinum status for staying there so often. Not sure too many people have multiple stays at that place.
