Team Spirit is Within All of Us


 During these past few months, I have seen that the spirit within ECI was so upbeat--whether it was at the football games or at the green and gold days.  The first ever pep rally was something that really brought out school spirit.  We had a great amount of fun seeing the teams play or an even greater amount for those select few who had the pleasure of playing.  The girls' basketball team made it to the finals with strength and determination, and with all the support we had given to them, they wouldn’t have been there if is were not for every one of us supporting them.  Both football teams did an excellent job of making it to the playoffs, but the downer was getting defeated in the last few games before the finals.  I personally enjoyed the green and gold days where we would dress up as much as we could in the team colours to support our Rams to victory.
 When it came to White Pine, an event which the grade 9’s will be experiencing next year, I saw a lot of spirit come out from both the campers and the counselors.  It was as if we were all experiencing it together for the first time.  The spirit shown among students and teachers alike has brought lots of fun to people who are new to ECI or Canada overall.
 The CN Tower stair climb, organized by the Charity Committee, was a huge success for ECI as we raised over $4500 and were the biggest group!  Good job RAMS!
 The school’s spirit is at an all time high and is going through the roof.  Keep up the spirit, for we can achieve anything if we put our minds to it.  GO RAMS GO!
