Fall Clothing Drive Over 30 bags of clothing were donated by our school community, sorted by the Grade 5’s from Mrs. Scott and Mr. Thorp's classes and finally delivered to the Adult High School on Tuesday November 13. A great team effort! It is the intention of School Council to hold another clothing drive in the spring. Here’s a few lines from a thank you note that our vice principal received: Oh my Gosh!!! I just saw the bags you brought to us ... and I can't believe how nice everything looks --- the clothes you sent were labelled, clean and a great fit for our student body - I still cannot believe how many bags you sent us..... unbelievable -- you must have an army of parent/volunteer workers .... thank you so much!!!!  An incredible windfall for our students.  Amazing effort!!!! Chemistry Magic Show We had a very successful event on Thursday, November 8.  Over 300 people enjoyed the free event and over $200 was raised with the sale of pizza and drinks.  A special thank you to Jacob Wong and Tara Dawson who came on behalf of the Let's Talk Science team and who showed us some very neat experiments. Plans are underway for other community events. Let us know what you would like to see…
