Please note that this is all done through School Cash so there is no option for the student to come into the office to purchase it.

Our Grade 9 students had their Edmonton overnight trip and some great times were had! Thanks again to Ms. MacLeod and Mr. Holloway for giving our students this opportunity. We also want to thank all the chaperones that went and helped!

A huge thank you also goes out to the Lions Club and our community for all the support of the Bingo Fundraiser as well as the bottle drive! Without this support our trip may also not have been as successful!

Come out and support our Hawks this weekend! There will also be a concession available on site.

Mrs. Dobson organized a successful EPIC trip for our Grade 9 students again this year! Thank you to Mrs. Dobson for all her work ensuring these opportunites exist for all our current and incoming high school students!
