Week 4 - Gateway to McGivney

Thanks go out to all students that attended the Gateway to McGivney Trip on Wednesday.

Despite not getting to go to the original location of Shadow Lake, you all made the best of an emergency replacement location at Prince of Peace Church and made it into a very fun and rewarding day.

We took lots of pictures and they will be posted in the ESL Room soon.

Don't forget to bring your $1 to donate to the Haiti Relief on Monday.

Have a great weekend.

Gateway to McGivney Trip - September 25th

Hi students,

Mark your calendars/agendas. This year's Gateway to McGivney Trip will happen on Thursday September 25th. Permission forms will be given out soon.

This means that all going on the trip will miss the Terry Fox Run at the school. However, you can still raise money and donate to a great cause. You can also run 5 km with Mr. Hospedales and the Cross-country Team after school.

Speaking of teams, there will be no Tennis team this year. We were unable to declare a team by the league deadline. Sorry, maybe next year.

Tennis, Cross-country and Manager Jobs

It is week #2 and we hope all is still going well with everyone. Today is the last day to make schedule changes so make sure to see Ms. Spicer today.

Mr. Hospedales is coaching the Tennis and Cross-country team so please feel free to see him as soon as possible for details and to try out for either team.

Both teams need a manager so if you need community service hours this is the perfect job for you. See Mr. Hospedales as soon as possible because these jobs get claimed very quickly.

The end of week #1
