Gaudeamus igitur, Iuvenes dum sumus... Вітаємо матурантів курсів українознавства 2012!
The graduation ball for students of the Toronto
Ukrainian School Board was a raging success again this year as always.The kids
are impressive, smart, confident and full of life. We wish them all a very
bright future.
The community is in very good hands if the young men and women who graduated this weekend grow up to assume leadership positions. The Valedictorians from the 7 Toronto, Hamilton and Oshawa schools all came across as confident, intelligent and energetic.
14 of the students took part in our Matura Video Contest which is co-sponsored with Western Union. Western Union very generously provides the funds for the prizes which totalled $3,800 this year! First place ($1,000) went to Oriana Hrycyshyn of Tsiopa Palijiw Ukrainian School in Toronto. Victoria Rimar of Lesia Ukrainka School received the $500 second place prize, and Olena Ginda and Alexandra Szewczyk, both of St. Nicholas Ukrainian School shared the third place prize of $250. Each of their schools received a matching cash donation.
Also, three students, Victoria Rimar, Valentyna Butenko and Katya Brechun all recieved $100 rewards for submitting their videos before the early bird deadline.

All the videos that were entered were very good and it was hard fro the judges to pick a winner. We look forward to seeing next year's participants. We hope they will be as good as the ones this year! But they have a tough act to follow.
The Matura Ball was a great success this year. the parents on the organizing committee put in so much work and were rewarded with a brilliant evening. All the parents though should be very proud as their kids have passed a very important milestone in their lives successfully.
