Talen Thornton

Hello, my name is Talen Reid Thornton. My parents are Aaron and Karen-Ann Thornton. I started my education at Oyen Public School from Preschool all the way up until grade 7. In grade 8, I moved over to SCHS, but in grade 9, I moved to Medicine Hat and attended Notre Dame Academy for 6 months because of hockey. I returned to Oyen at the end of grade 9 and have been at SCHS ever since. I’ve played hockey ever since I could walk and was lucky enough to travel all over Alberta playing the game I love. I was introduced to hunting at a very young age and have loved it ever since. November is a very busy time of the year for my family and I, because if we are not at the rink, we’re hunting, and if we're not hunting, we are at the rink.  I’ve played Scorps baseball since grade 8, and it was always something I could look forward to during the school year. I also played on the high school basketball team in grades 10, 11, and 12. After high school, I plan on continuing my education at SAIT, where I will take Refrigeration and Air Conditioning Mechanics.
