Callie's Backpacks
The Leadership team is project to support Callie's Backpacks this January! This is a project developed by a youth in Winnipeg. The purpose is to gather basic necessities for the homeless and fill donated backpacks or bags with these items. We are asking for families to help Lockport School support this youth-run initiative for the first time!
If you have a bag that you are no longer using then this is a great opportunity to donate it to a worthy cause! Please click on the link below for a list of items needed. Thank you for your support!

Lockport WE Day: WE All Matter
To increase awareness and acceptance of a diverse population, the Leadership team is in the process of organizing our second in-school Lockport WE Day. This year, our theme is "WE All Matter". There will be 6 different activity and awareness stations that help to build education and empathy among our students about how regardless of our past experiences, each one of us matters and is valuable in our society. We are in the midst of gathering some keynote speakers for the opening ceremonies including representatives from our school division.
If you are interested in helping out with this exciting event, please contact Mrs. Klym, Ms. Lambert, or Mr. Morelli.
The students at Lockport once again participated in WE Scare Hunger. This was a school-wide event run by the Leadership team. This year, our school collected approximately 1200 pounds of food! This has been donated to the Selkirk Food Bank on behalf of Lockport School. There was a 2-week long TAG competition with 2 categories: the highest total weight of food, and the most items of food. TAGs developed a friendly competition to achieve one of the top 3 spots. The final results were: Highest total weight of food donated: TAG Lambert with 170 pounds TAG Steip with 162 pounds TAG MacDonald with 118 pounds Most items of food donated: TAG Steip with 138 items TAG MacDonald with 134 items TAG Hamilton with 112 items.
