Meet Anthony Veldhouse! Anthony is a cool
seven-year old who attends Mary Bergeron
Elementary - he’ll be going into grade 2 in
the Fall. His favorite colors are blue, red and
orange. If Anthony could be any animal he
would be a baby chick! His most favorite

outside or go to the pool. When he’s indoors,
Anthony has fun playing on electronics.
