Congratulations TCDSB Skills Canada Participants and Winners!
On May 5, 2009, over 50 TCDSB secondary school students participated in the 20th Annual Skills Canada competition at RIM Park in Waterloo, Ontario. With well over 1,600 competitors from across our great province competing in over 40 different competitions, our students shone in all areas from hairstyling to cabinet making and graphic design to auto service technician. This year was a record breaking year for the TCDSB as it brought its largest team ever to the Skills Ontario competition. Further to that, approximately 1,100 students from the TCDSB in both elementary and secondary made the trip to RIM Park to observe and cheer on TEAM TCDSB!!!
