Awards of Excellence 2019-2020

Grade 8 Top Academic 

Enrico Deleske

Enrico provided many firsts in 8RR this year.  He was the first to successfully reference Frozen in an assignment.  He was the first to pass both Grade 8 and 9 Math in the same year with 100% in each. Enrico’s academic achievements are something to be celebrated, but he has many other amazing qualities that need to be recognized.

He is kind and compassionate.  He includes others without making a big deal of it.  Enrico puts others before himself; he played keeper in soccer for half the season, even though it wasn’t really where he wanted to play.  He builds others up and offers help and support.  There are numerous examples where he helped someone out in the classroom with editing, revising, or a math problem.  He also supports teammates, helping them with positioning, regularly passing instead of looking for the glory for himself.  Enrico doesn’t settle.  In the 3 months of at home learning, the quality of his work never once slipped, he was still concerned with deadlines, and independently completed the Grade 9 Math course.

Enrico’s 99% was this year’s top academic average for Grade 8.  We couldn’t be more proud to award Enrico with the Grade 8 Academic Award. 

Pete the Cat offers this life lesson, “Amazing things happen when you work hard.”  Enrico is proof of that.

Grade 7 Top Academic

Heidi Klassen

The recipient of the top academic award in grade 7 this year is a very detailed, hardworking student.  She completes all of her school work on time and always puts forth her best effort.  On top of her academic skills she is also highly artistic and creative.  The personal details she adds to projects look like they’ve been printed from the computer they are so precise.  

Along with being meticulous with her school work, this student is always positive and smiling, she puts everyone around her in a better mood with her sunny disposition.

We are so proud to present this award to Heidi Klassen 7VC.

Female Athlete of the Year

Delaney Penner

Many of us have had the opportunity to coach Delaney throughout the years. Whether it was on the soccer field, volleyball, basketball, or badminton court, she was sure to be there. Delaney is an athlete that you genuinely get excited to coach. She is determined, motivated, energetic, positive, skilled, and only sometimes a little too hard on herself. As a Grade 8 athlete, a lot of weight was put on Delaney’s shoulders this year. She was a returning player on each team and she was expected to lead by example. She was expected to take new players under her wing while continuing to perform at the high level we knew she could. She never disappointed, not at practice, in a game, or in the halls at school. All her coaches knew they could always depend on her. Delaney excelled this year in all the sports she participated in. From her bullet serve in volleyball to her deadly smash in badminton, Delaney was a force to be reckoned with as an ECS athlete. We are very excited to see where the sports world takes you Delaney, and we are all very lucky to have had to opportunity to be a small part of your journey.

Male Athlete of the Year

Sol Singisingi

This years male athlete of the year played soccer, volleyball, and basketball and was a significant and dependable contributor to each of those teams.  He always played with intensity and heart whether in games or in practices and always wanted to be contributing to the team’s effort. He is always pushing himself to be better and is willing to listen to coaches in order to improve. He was a top defender in soccer drawing complements from opposing coaches, and a leader on the basketball court with tremendous skill. He also ended up being one of our top volleyball players despite never playing before this year. Thank you for all of your contributions to our sports programs and congratulations to Solomon Singisingi on being the Male Emerado Eagles Athlete of the Year.
