Columneetza Grade 7 students Jayden Shortreed and Nicholas Stasiuk participated in a breathing exercise as part of an air quality exhibit during the Earth Day Challenge at the school last week.
Jayden had to exercise while breathing through a straw to feel what it’s like to have asthma while Nicholas, who does suffer from asthma, did a test without the straw.
The event was organized by the Cariboo Chilcotin Conservation Society.
