For students in Grade 9 that are interested in the Duke of Edinburgh program, there will be a virtual information session this Thursday, November 12th from 6-7 pm. Interested students are asked to fill out this Google Form so they can be invited to the Google Meet.

Things are starting to shape up! Thanks to Treena Boyde for these pictures.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to the Coats for Kids event for 2020. As you can see, our community came through yet again to help keep people warm this winter!

Construction has started!

As you are aware, Chartwells is our current food provider. Up until this point, orders could be placed online up until 7:45 in the morning for delivery that same day. Parents/guardians must register with Cafzone (cafzone.ca) to avail of this service.

Starting on Monday, Chartwells will also be selling food onsite. Each grade will be called and in keeping with protocol, students must wear their mask and socially distance while in line.

Online orders will still be accepted. Thank you for your continued support.

Not sure what to do with your leftover Halloween candy? Donate it to The Gathering Place! Bring in your candy and drop it off on the table outside the cafeteria. All items donated will be brought to The Gathering Place.

Take Our Kids to Work Day 2020 is a career exploration event for students in Grade 9. This event is not promoted by NLESD, but it is one that may appeal to some parents and/or students. This year it is scheduled to be a virtual event.

If you would more information or would like to have your workplace participate in this event, there are some steps that must be completed.

1. Visit The Learning Partnership at https://www.thelearningpartnership.ca/take-our-kids-to-work to register your workplace.
2. Parents or guardians have to visit The Learning Partnership to register a student to participate.
3. An email must be sent to MDJH to confirm the student’s participation, so that they are not marked as “Absent Unexcused”.

Please note that this is an event for Grade 9 students only. Students who participate are responsible for worked covered in class during their absence.
