Madill "Springs Alive" With Talent

No less than 3 bands and a variety of solo musicans and singers performed.

The second annual "Spring Alive" festival of the arts was another huge success. Musicians, actors, dancers, poets, film makers and visual artists were on stage to showcase the incredible diversity of talent at our school.

Excerpts from dramatic works were included in the program.

Appreciative audiences on both evenings were entertained by a diverse program of visual and performing arts. During intermission audience members had an opportunity to browse through the portfolio of photography club members and order poster sized prints to take home- signed of course by the artists!

Madill's senior boys rugby team in action!

Congratulations to the Mustang Senior Boys rugby team on winning the WOSSAA championship here at home yesterday. This is a first for the Madill boys in 10 years of having rugby as a school sport.

Fans show their support!

The team defeated Woodstock Collegiate 22-0 in the semi-finals and in front of a large crowd they defeated Huron Park 19-0 to earn the championship. The team heads to OFSAA being held in Guelph next week. Congratulations to all team members and good luck next week.

The Madill Track and Field Team traveled to the University of Western Ontario in London to compete in WOSSAA on May 23 and 24. There were many outstanding performances by the team. Cole Pellett broke a Madill record in the Midget Boys’ Triple Jump that had stood for 27 years on his way to winning the gold medal in the event. He also won gold in the Midget Boys’ long jump. Jodi Eadie won gold in the Midget Girls’ Discus.

Heather deBoer and Erin Gilchrist.

Heather deBoer won silver medals in both the Junior Girls Discus and Shot Put and Erin Gilchrist won the bronze medal in the Junior Girls Shot Put. A.J. Beasley won bronze in the 400m hurdles. He also won bronze along with Rob Marriott, Chris Corbett and Trevor Stacey in the senior boys 4 x 100m relay. Altogether, 18 Madill athletes finished with at least one top 5 performance and therefore qualified to advance to the OFSAA West Regional Competition to be held in Windsor on June 1st and 2nd. Even more team members recorded personal best performances and the whole team performed well.
