The Niagara Catholic District School Board held its annual Technology Skills Competition on March 16, 2026, for students in Grimsby, Ontario, and the surrounding region. The event gave students a chance to demonstrate their practical talents in several trade-related fields.

Students from Blessed Trinity Catholic Secondary School in Grimsby were among those who showcased their abilities. Participants took part in challenges involving culinary arts, automotive technology, and welding to highlight what they have learned in their technical education programs.

The competition serves as a local stepping stone for students aiming to reach higher levels of competition. Top performers may move on to represent the school board at the provincial level with Skills Ontario or at the national Skills Canada event.

By hosting this yearly event, the school board focuses on helping students prepare for future careers in the trades. The competition allows young people to gain hands-on experience and recognition for their hard work in vocational training.
