The Final Week of Semester 1 (2011/2012)

As you all know, it is the final week of Semester 1 at FMM and we are all busy completing assignments, and preparing for exams.

Many exams start this week so we should ALL be in "Exam Mode." There is no time to waste.

As always, extra help is available in the ELL Centre at all times and especially after school.

Since exams are in progress, you must not come to the Centre to eat, or socialize during Period 3. Make sure consume your lunch in the cafeteria. You may enter for quiet study ONLY once you have eaten.

Semester 2 resumes on Monday February 6. On this day you will re-visit your semester 1 classes for 15 minutes to see your exams, then after 4 rotations, you will go to your new semester 2 classes.

Have a great week and rest of the semester.

Our Annual Christmas Lunch

The ELL held the annual Christmas luncheon last year in ESL room with different kinds of delicious cultural food brought by the ELL students and fun games throughout the luncheon.

The Christmas luncheon was held last year, December 17 in the year of 2011. The McGivney International Club organized the luncheon; their goal is the have a spectacular Christmas party for ELL students.

Their hard works paid off, the luncheon was a blast! Students from the ELL even the teachers had an amazing time during the party; students played several games, chat with their friends, and ate different kinds of appetizing delicacies from different cultures. Overall, the Christmas luncheon last year was fantastic and incredible! And thanks to M.I.C members for all to make this the remarkable party of 2011. I couldn’t wait for this year’s Christmas luncheon! .
