This year, OTIP received 91 submissions for the Sponsorship of School Projects and Initiatives program, the highest that the program has seen to date! From outdoor play spaces, to STEM programs, to music, arts and wellness projects, the creativity seen in the submissions was incredible. The initiatives being implemented in our education community across the province are outstanding and our judges thoroughly enjoyed seeing the passion, creativity and inventiveness involved in the creation of each submission.

Through three stages of voting, the six submissions with the highest score will each receive $5,000 towards their project or initiative. The winning schools are:

• Queen Elizabeth Public School
• Weston Collegiate Institute
• Lucy McCormick Senior School
• Barrhaven Public School
• St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Elementary School
• Stirling Public School

With so many incredible projects across the education community, OTIP is also awarding six additional honourable mentions of $1,000 to help offset the cost of these worthy initiatives. We are excited to announce that the following schools will also receive a $1,000 prize.

• Anne Frank Public School
• St. David Catholic Elementary School
• St. Louis Catholic Elementary School
• Canadian Martyrs Catholic Elementary School
• St. Robert Catholic High School
• Woodland Public School

Congratulations to all the winners! We look forward to seeing your projects and initiatives come to life.
