Semester 1, Week 9 (2012) - Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween Everyone!

On Wednesday September 31, students will be allowed to attend class in a "costume". It is NOT a Civies day. If you are doubtful that what you are going to wear is a costume, then it probably isn't. So don't wear it and you should just wear your school uniform or just bring along your school uniform just in case. Keep in mind that masks are not allowed. We must be able to see your face.

Also on Wednesday, check out the fashion show and costume contest during lunches & a Haunted House put on by SAC in the Gym. There will also be a home room door decoration contest - judged during period 3.

Congratulations to the FMM Crosscountry Team that participated last week at the YRAA Championships.
One of the students, Dishanth Peter-Dias placed second overall and advanced to the Provincial championships this coming weekend.

Monday October 29
