- There are still a few spots available for the field trip to Hoodoo climbing gym in Penticton on February 7th. If you are in grade 8 or 9 and would like to participate... see Mr. Willms for permission forms. This activity is great for both beginners and experts!
- A reminder that there will be no service in the cafeteria next week due to exams and food safe training. Service will begin again on Tuesday February 7th. Thursday the 3rd will still be pizza day.
- Reminder to Mrs. Stopa’s booster group students to check your Teams and complete a quick survey by Friday. Thank you to those who have already done this.
- Thank you to all of the grade 8 and 9 students who have completed their course requests for next year. They are all due by this Friday January 27th. Grade 8’s bring your signed paper to Mrs. G in the library and grade 9’s please complete your submission on MyBlueprint. If you need help come see Mrs. G.
- Grade 9’s...the clock is ticking for Gardem Lake! Your $50 deposits are due by Wednesday February 1st. We need commitment from at least 75 of you in order to make the trip happen and as of right now we have commitment from a mere 32 students. We are working on fundraising to bring the overall cost down, but the $50 deposit is the commitment we need to get going on the fundraising. If we don’t have a $50 deposit from at least 75 students on Feb 1st, the trip will be cancelled. If the trip doesn’t happen your $50 will be reimbursed. Remind your families and remind each other to get your $50 in to Ms. Wilkie ASAP. Please see Ms. Smith with any questions. (Everyday please)
- Congratulations to both the Grade 8 Girls and Jr. Boys basketball teams for their wins here at home last night. Way to go Hornets!
