Student at Neil McNeil Catholic Secondary Schools receives Mary Jane McKeen skilled trades bursary

Congratulations Tom Sinclair of Neil McNeil Catholic Secondary School! Tom is the firsttime recipient of the Mary Jane McKeen Skilled Trades Bursary.

A graduating student, Tom is an active member of the Neil McNeil school community and loves to work with his hands. He has been taking tech classes since grade 9 and it is without a doubt his favourite class. He is planning to pursuer a career in construction and is attending Mohawk College in September. He will pursue the “Home Renovations Technician” program at college and hopes to also study the art of making fine cabinetry. Music and sports also play an active role in

Tom’s personal life. Administered by The Angel Foundation for Learning, The Mary Jane McKeen Skilled Trades Bursary in the amount of $500 is awarded each year to a high school student who has skills and talents working with his or her hands. It helps defray costs associated with pursuing an apprenticeship program or continuing post secondary education in the skilled trades.
