An Ethics Bowl is a collaborative and competitive event, where teams of students use critical and creative thinking skills to analyze and discuss dilemmas that focus on current issues—social, political, economic, scientific and cultural. For the second year in a row, the SPACHS Spartans Senior Team won the provincial championship at the University of Alberta Regional Ethics Bowl Tournament and had the opportunity to compete at the national level at the Canadian Museum for Human Rights in Winnipeg. They also placed first at the O'Leary and Holy Trinity Ethics Slam Tournaments. Like to argue and make a positive difference in the world? Ethics Bowl is for you!

Want to meet a group of like-minded people? Always wanted to sing, but never really knew how? Already sang in choir? Then this is the place for you!  

Choir is a place for students to socialize and enjoy singing together. We do caroling, journey songs, and jam out to karaoke. Choir meets once a week during lunch and we do performances throughout the year.

Model UN simulations engage hundreds of thousands of students each year, helping them to learn more about the principles of the UN and how it functions. Many of today’s leaders in law, government, business and the arts – including at the UN itself – participated in Model UN as students. 

At SPA, we have weekly meetings to talk about important world problems, but the main focus of our club is getting ready for our yearly conferences! In the past, we have gone to Model UN Conferences where many students from the area meet for three days to represent different countries in the United Nations. Students are given countries and committees to discuss and work on solutions for specific topics.
