Extra Curricular
These are just some of the things that go on at our school besides day to day learning. Feel free to join our activities.
Band
The APS Gr 7 & 8 band practice is every Day 5 at 9:00 am. Section practice is held Monday during 2nd period (9:50-10:40). Capable students in Gr. 7 & 8 are welcome to join. We perform throughout the year, and often travel to other schools. Mr. Ethier is the contact person.
The Breakaway Girls
Mrs. Lovell and Mrs. Baker are in charge of the cheerleading squad. The practices are on Tuesday and Thursday at last recess in the gym. Only the grade threes can join the club. It's for the primary students to show off their spirit.
Camera Club
The club meets on Day 3 at first recess. If you are in Gr. 4-8 and like to take pictures, then bring your camera and come and join us. Mr. Ethier is the contact person.
Chess Club
The Chess Club is open to grades 1-4 and 5-8. The club meets most first recesses. This couldn't happen without Mr. Rosati. The best-of-luck to the chess club.
Choir
Under the direction of Miss Reive, the primary choir performs two times per year. Practices are usually at recesses and are open to students from Grades One through Three.
Eco Team
Hardworking students under the direction of Mrs. Caderette run the recycling program for the school. They do a valuable job and get it done well every single Wednesday, all on their own volunteer time. Great job, people!
Homework Club
Oh boy, this sounds like fun! Actually, it is! At second nutrition break students can bring their homework to the library to work on or to get help from a teacher. Mrs. Silvaggio runs this club. You must get a pass card from your homeroom teacher before coming to the library.

Music Practice
The music room is open for Grades 3 to 8 on Days 2 and 4 at first recess. Students may also sign out instruments every Friday and practice at home until Monday. When you practice in the music room it is informal but the teacher is there to help. Just show up at the times provided and play music. Grade 7 and 8 students can earn marks by doing extra practice.
Playground Coaches
Mrs. Lemire supervises a group of students who assist on the primary playground to help things run smoother out there at recesses.

This group is open to any students in Gr. 3-8 that like to play the recorder. We perform all kinds of music, including Medieval and Renaissance.
