Pre-exam activities: IMPORTANT
Good morning, students in Grades 7-11,
You will see the activity/ies that you have signed up for in your Veracross Portal. Make sure that you make your way directly to the location of the activity after Advisory. The supervisor will take attendance. You may not make any changes without prior permission.
If you have not signed up for an activity, you must be in your Block 1 lesson for quiet study.
Block 2: you need to be in your scheduled Block 2 lesson for either quiet study or a normal lesson, as indicated on the exam schedule. There are no activities during Block 2.
Be balanced!
Mrs Tyoschin

Staff vs Grade 12 Baseball
The Grade 12 Graduates have challenged the staff to a game of baseball to end the year this Thursday, May 17th, at 4:00. We will be using a “Chicago Style” soft ball (16 inches in diameter and easy to catch bare-handed) so there is no need for a glove.
If you have any interest in playing, please contact Darren or Rick, or show up at the pitch at 4:00. All staff are invited to join, no experience necessary.
