Terry Fox Stories

We have been talking and reading about Terry Fox this past week in preparation for Strathcona's annual Terry Fox Run, which is taking place on Monday, September 30th.  You are more than welcome to come and join your child for the run.  We will be starting shortly after 9:00a.m. and will run around Strathcona School and McLean Park until about 10:15!  The children have been practicing and are excited to be part of "Terry Fox's Marathon of Hope".  

Here are some wonderful and moving stories written by the children about a Great Canadian Hero...
