SOUTHERN OKANAGAN SECONDARY SCHOOL  

MONDAY NOVEMBER 18, 2024 

 

  1. 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. 

 

  1. 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 host a student in your home. Check the QR code on the posters around the school to attend the Zoom information meeting or see Ms. Scott. 

 

  1. Reminder to all Gr 8 Boys Volleyball players, you need to have your permission form in this week, so that you can go and spend the afternoon with the UBC-O Mens Volleyball! Get those forms in, it is going to be a blast! 
  2.  
  1. The senior girls volleyball team competed at the Valley Championships this weekend. The girls played their best volleyball of the season finishing 7th. Excellent passing by Maya Kriesel, Abby Wolfe, and Paige Lougheed, stellar blocking by Chloe Luypen and Jordyn Nelson, setting by Alana Guttormsson, great defense by Emily Seminoff and Mayera Soni, and the hitting machine Ava Kosaka. The Sr. Girls had a great season and have set a new standard of what volleyball looks like at the Sr. level. The future looks bright! Thanks to Ms. Ibby and Mr. Burns for volunteering their time with the team.
