St. Augustine School takes Gold at Cardboard Boat Races - NAIT

Armed with cardboard, duct tape and a few other items, junior and senior high students from across the province used their skill and ingenuity to transform these materials into boats for the water. Teams had to construct a boat in 1 ½ hours or less. Not only did their boat need to be quick, it had to be capable of carrying passengers as well. Points were awarded for: design and teamwork, speed across the pool, and for a float test. For the float test three of the team members had to float in the boat for up to a maximum time of one minute while the other held the boat steady.

Our junior and senior teams represented St. Augustine School very well – each team brought home the gold for their division.

Junior Team Members: Nathan Giles, Efren Geneblazo, Matthew Kawahara, David Kawahara
Senior Team Members: Isaac Froese, Anna Froese, Connor MacLeod, Avery Klimec
