The Star Event of STUCO: The Promised Brawl Stars Tournament

Trevor Wu (11) | STAFF REPORTER

Think back to last year, to our own student council elections, the first time in a long time we were able to elect our student government. What made noise, got the crowd electrified? That’s right, the oath that if they were voted, a Brawl Stars tournament would be held. The competition was forgotten for a while, and many even assumed we were misled in order to gain our votes. However, on the Tuesday of February 18, it was finally announced. STUCO would be holding the long awaited tournament on February 27th, with sign ups beginning the following thursday. The ticket sale period lasted from the 20th to the 24th, and costed $2 per participant. The tournament was played in the 3v3 game modes, with players pre-establishing their teams during sign ups. It was hosted in the library, with rumored to be over 25 participating teams. The team who won it all, proved to be above the rest, and crowned themselves the champions, consisted of Nathan, Jared, and Peter! Congratulations to our first ever St. Robert Brawl Stars titleholders, and although there was no prize, they gained honour, or as some would say, aura. Their win marked the end of the tournament, so that is all for today, until next time, and don’t play too much Brawl Stars. read more

However there are a few things to keep in mind, each squad has a total of seven players, and must consist of a minimum of two boys and two girls. Each team member must also sign a permission form, which you can find on the SAC board in front of the large gym. Once again, registration takes place on Valentines day, which is friday, february the 14th, make sure to make your way to the front foyer by 8:00 am. Each team must designate a team captain, who will hand in the permission forms, as well as $2 for each participant. There are limited spaces, so ensure you arrive on time, as the vacancies are first come first serve. Once you have secured a spot, look out for posts on the SAC instagram @strobertsac, as they will post the game schedules.

That is all for today, good luck dodging, or maybe hurling dodgeballs at your friends. read more

An Enchanted Evening With STUCO! Everything about Semi-Formal

Trevor Wu (11) | STAFF REPORTER

It’s that time of the year again, our school’s annual semi formal! Whether you like to dance, or eat, or both, this is the perfect occasion! As per usual, hosted by our own student council (STUCO), this event will take place on March 6, 2025. As per all semi formal events though, it is exclusive to grade tens and elevens. So sorry grade nines, grade twelves on the other hand get lots of their own special events, so you’re the only ones left out. Although the location of the venue hasn’t been disclosed yet, it will likely remain the same as previous years, the Crystal Fountain. The theme for this year’s semi-formal will be an enchanted evening! Although I have no clue how to dress for that occasion, STUCO’s post incorporates a dimly lit fantasy forest like background, so maybe prepare a fairy costume. Venue tickets have already gone on sale, so make sure to log onto School Day and snatch one for yourself! Semi will take place from 5:30 PM to 10 PM on March 6, 2025, remember to mark that on your calendars. Other than that, more information can be found on STUCO’s Instagram, and I hope you all have an amazing time! read more
