Girls Clubs
- For the last few years, Allenby has run a Girls' Club for girls in grades 4, 5, and
6. These three clubs run separately, sometimes on different days of the week,
during the lunch hour.
- The girls enjoy a variety of activities, discussions, outings and lessons on topics
that are of interest to young girls. Some of these topics may include body image,
boys, friendship, bullying and puberty.
- The clubs usually run from January until May, but this can vary depending on the
interests of the girls and the teacher in charge.
- This year the grade 4 club is facilitated by Mr. Timofte, the grade 5 club by Ms.
Marshall and the grade 6 club by Anna Grosman.
