École Isabella Dicken Elementary and Fernie Secondary School buddy classes recently collaborated to create haikus as part of a shared learning experience focused on creativity, literacy, and student connection across grade levels. Under the guidance of teacher Yvonne Prest, the haikus were submitted to the International Haiku Contest.

We are proud to share that Ry from Fernie Secondary School and buddy partner Willa from École Isabella Dicken Elementary were selected as contest winners. Congratulations t on this outstanding international achievement and for representing the District with creativity and excellence.
