What happened last week?

Last week turned into a very unusual week. My last post was last Tuesday, however, I posted that early in the morning, and things didn't quite go as planned. The Subiaco area faced very strong winds, 60 mph in some places, last Tuesday. Sometime around 12:30, the power went out and flickered off and on for about 2 hours. So, Oral Communications students were not able to give their speeches, because most of them had prepared PowerPoint presentations, which they could not use without power.

Wednesday the entire school celebrated Catholic Schools Week with a pilgrimage to some local churches, and then returned to campus for a school-wide movie day. There were no classes this day.

On Thursday morning the sleet started at 7:15 and by 8:00 there was already visible accumulation, so classes were cancelled. Later Thursday afternoon the snow and ice continued, and so Friday classes were also cancelled.

Catholic Schools week certainly provided the students with a change of pace.
