MEET OUR STUDENT PARTICIPANTS:
TEAM SASKIN
Our team asked "Why have you joined the challenge?"
Audry (7) - "Becuase we want all of our community, our neighbours, our animals, and our families to be safe when crossing the road and walking up and down the hill".
Design challenge brought to you by St. Mark's Hill Safety, the team behind WINTER(safety)FEST 2023.
On Jan. 29th 2023, our community gathered to rally for increased road safety measures on St. Mark's Hill from our local government in time for Ontario Active School's Winter Walk To School Day on Feb. 1st.
