Students from Grades 1-6 had an unforgettable experience as they gathered for a special assembly featuring former astronaut Julie Payette.

Payette, known for her achievements both in space and beyond, captivated students with stories of her journeys on two space missions: STS-96 in 1999 and STS-127 in 2009. Her engaging storytelling brought the wonders of space exploration to life for students, who listened with rapt attention as she shared vivid details about her time spent among the stars.

Choir Performance

Beyond her work in space, Payette is a passionate supporter of the arts and has a lifelong love of choir, making this event particularly meaningful. To conclude the assembly, our school choir honored her with a heartfelt song performance, a fitting tribute to a woman who has inspired so many both on Earth and in the heavens.

We’re grateful to Julie Payette for sharing her time, her stories, and her passion with us. This inspiring visit has left our students dreaming big and looking to the stars.
