King Glen Wins 1st Annual Kings Park Lions vs. Kings Glen Gators Volleyball game
This year the Kings Park and Kings Glen staffs took the court in a friendly game against each other. School pride was on the line as the two schools squared off in a battle to the end. The game took place at Lake Braddock Secondary School on April 4th at 6:30 pm. Kings Glen won the first game, but the Lions from Kings Park "roared back" to win the second game. However, the Kings Glen Gators were not to be denied as they won the third game in convincing fashion so that nobody could say the game was a "Croc"..

Staff wins 21st Annual Volleyball Game!
What a wonderful way to end the volleyball unit in PE and the perfect way to send students off to Winter Break!! Amid the students chants of "Go Kings Glen" the Staff Volleyball team, who has practiced very hard in December, won the match by winning the first two games of the three game set. However, the students showed great resolve and determination in decisively winning the third game. A great time was had by all!!! Thank you to Sandy Woods who has put this game together for 21 years and Lindsey Boswell for her great help! Also, a major thank you to the teachers for engraining the kind of outstanding maturity and behavior we saw today in the students and which is a part of our school culture.
