As LCC’s Centenary winds to a close, the theme of change came to the forefront in the Senior School’s reflections on the year. However, change is not always synthetic and unpremeditated. We can always be better prepared for change by having ourselves grounded in a solid knowledge of the past. Sometimes, change is quite cyclical.
Several of LCC’s P.E. classes have dabbled in one of the School’s long-lost traditions – Cricket. Cricket is a bat and ball game played on large fields with a rectangular “pitch” in the centre. LCC’s fields had a cricket pitch into the early 1990s. In recent years, a resurgence in the game has occurred, with some modifications, introducing it as a viable indoor sport.
Several LCC P.E. classes have been given a quick, classroom history lesson and introduction to the rules using YouTube, then brought to the gym for a modified game. To date, three grade 9 classes and two grade 7 classes have played.
As LCC hits its second 100 years running, we will continue to keep a strong respect for our traditions and history, in order to make the future better.

The journey began bright and early on Monday, November 9, 2009. Giving up our ped. day sleep in, our team—comprised of Greg Sigler, Noah Schouela, Elsa Schlemm, Chloe Collier, Tiffany Chamandy, Lauren Piccoli, Alysha Fedele and Blair Hardiman—arrived at the Mackay Center to pack up the bus and get the ball rolling. Once organized, we headed to the handicap-friendly Camp Massawippi in the Eastern Townships. From that moment on the fun did not stop. We were kept busy by the kids’ desire to remain active, bond with their new friends and experience nature to its fullest. 
The Ministry of Education has made dramatic changes to the grade 11 English Language Arts assessment for 2010.
Every week, LCC’s grade 1 students receive a “Math Problem of the Week,” which is made up of several math activities that they need to solve.
