Roughly 100 Grade 5 and 6 students from eight local schools met at Alexander Galt yesterday to face off in the annual ETSB badminton tournament. According to Ayer’s Cliff Elementary Physical Education teacher Stephanie Fournier, the event is a great opportunity for the students to meet their future peers and classmates. This year, the participating schools were North Hatley Elementary, Sherbrooke Elementary, Sunnyside, Pope Memorial, Cookshire, St. Francis, Ayer’s Cliff Elementary and Sawyerville Elementary. “It’s a big tournament,” Fournier said, and involves long hours of preparation for the participating schools and support from parents.
