On May 10, the APÉ of l'école André-Piolat in North Vancouver held its 11^th Spring Festival, which was a great success again this year.

Hundreds of people from the community participated in a range of activities for the whole family, including a silent auction, pony rides, fun face painting, a sale of second-hand books, and sumo wrestling. All ages could watch the artistic performances and martial arts demonstrations, and feast on crepes, cotton candy, pastries, and other treats, or enjoy some food prepared on the barbecue.

The Spring Festival is the APÉ's most important fundraising activity, and the funds raised allow it to support a large number of initiatives that benefit the students and the school.
