Congratulations Students! We are very proud of your achievements. Sometimes we win, and sometimes we don't. Success shouldn't make us arrogant, and mistakes teach us to be successful. In a nutshell, success is not a destination, It's a journey. We hope you enjoyed the journey so far. You have a long way to go. We want you to continue to look forward to what lies ahead.

We also want to thank teachers, admin staff at Ridley College ST Catharines & Success for All schools for participating in the contest. It takes a lot of time and effort to host these contests. We appreciate their outstanding efforts.
