Again? Yes AGAIN! GAME DAY!!

That’s right, Game Day is back!! Fresh off of Spring Break we will be meeting in the Fish Bowl across from IT at the beginning of lunch (1:00 P.M.).

All the homework, projects and exams stressing you out? Game Day.

Do you want to beat some teachers and show them that you are a true Board Game Warrior? Game Day.

Do you have any questions? The answer will always be “Game Day.”

Play our games, bring your own, make up your own-whatever you need to do, we are there to play against you!  Bring. It. On.

Chocolate for all!

Now that I have your attention, I can get down to business! There are not enough students in the Paper/4R Team to visit every room to empty the blue recycling boxes. If you are a class teacher, please organise your students to sort your paper (used on one side to reuse in the classroom/used on both sides to recycle) and to take it to the big painted 4R bins. Please remind your students not to put plastic and other non-paper rubbish in the paper recycling bins. Thanks for your cooperation.

The Paper Team

P.S. Sorry about the chocolate!
