GENERAL SCHOOL NEWS
Great performances by the Junior and Senior Bands, the Jazz Band, Vocal Jazz and Choir last night at the concert! Thank you to everyone who came out to support the performers!
Would you like to go trick or treating and help others at the same time? All students are invited to join the Social Justice Club's "We Scare Hunger" food drive tonight. You choose your route and time to collect food donations and you keep the candy! See Mrs. Wallace in room 30 for more information.
This is just a reminder that we will be running a school-wide double block schedule on November 2nd and 3rd to allow enough time for Literacy and Numeracy assessments. Morning breaks for those NOT writing the assessments will occur at the usual time.
