October is upon us.


Our annual Halloween party is coming up on October, 25th, we always need parent and student volunteers in order to make the event run smoothly.

A reminder that the deadline for ordering yearbooks is just around the corner. We need to sell at least 30 yearbooks by November 1st in order to begin working on the books. Without enough orders we can't have a yearbook, so keep them coming.

There is a copy of the yearbook order form in the September and October newsletters. Follow this link to print out a copy.

Another school year has begun, and all the grade eight students are bright eyed and ready to get to work. I hope everyone had a safe, exciting and relaxing summer vacation. With the start of the new school year there are some announcements and housekeeping details which need to be mentioned.

Our first fundraising activity of the year has begun. Coupon books and order forms were sent home with the kids on September 3rd.
