- Grade 11s and 12s – We are looking for Grade 11 and 12 students who enjoy math and want to make a difference by helping others. If you’re strong in math and interested in volunteering as a tutor, this is a great opportunity to support fellow students and earn volunteer hours at the same time.
- Any students interested in an exchange to Germany, see the posters for the BC – Germany Exchange Program. Spend 10 weeks in Germany in the spring, 2026, and also host a student in your home. Check the QR code on the posters around the school to attend the Zoom information meeting.
- All Legion contest entries should be handed in to Mrs. Koffler today.
- Skateboard club members need to submit their permission forms and waivers for Thursday’s trip ASAP. We need to verify attendance before we leave.

- The Senior Field Hockey Hornets played 5 challenging games and finished 10th in the province last week in Victoria. SOSS athletes had some great team possession, and Angela Jiminez scored her first goal ever. The Hornets were awarded the Fair Play trophy at the end of the week. Congratulations to our girls on an excellent season representing our school.
