2025 Graduating Class of Wawota Parkland School

Louise Michaud, Saskatchewan's Deputy Minister of Advanced Education, stopped by the Southeast College campuses yesterday afternoon for a meet and greet with faculty and staff.

"I've had the good fortune to be able to go to Whitewood, Weyburn, and Estevan today, so absolutely, it's a fantastic journey meeting some amazing staff and seeing a lot of opportunity for students. I've been in the role for just under a year, and this has been my first opportunity to come to this area."

The City of Estevan's Operation Clean Sweep begins today, following a delay thanks to the rains which continued into midweek last week. The operation instead begins this week, with operations for city workers beginning today.

Today, crews are cleaning the North, South, East, and West entrances to the city, along with any outlying areas.

The next day, May 28th, will see those crews move into the city and work on cleaning out city-owned properties and green spaces, such as boulevards, medians, parks, and natural areas.

The U15AA Whitecap Resources Gold Wings female hockey team celebrated a successful season at the Hockey Weyburn awards night on Monday, recognizing the outstanding efforts of their players.

This season, the Gold Wings set new team records with a notable winning streak and playoff success, said Assistant Coach Shawn Madsen. He described the year as a “really good stepping stone” for the program’s future. Though the team narrowly missed advancing further in the playoffs, losing by just one goal in the final round, the effort was commendable.

The Government of Saskatchewan has proclaimed May 25 to May 31, 2025, as National AccessAbility Week in partnership with Spinal Cord Injury Saskatchewan (SCI Saskatchewan).
