If you would like to learn more about the MEND program starting Jan 11, come out to the PAC meeting tonight to hear Ryan share information about it. MEND stands for Mind, Exercise, Nutrition, Do it and is designed for families to participate together.

A reminder that grade 4-6 girls basketball will have a drop-in practice again today after school. Remember to bring a water bottle.

Hi everyone, I met with Ryan from the city the other day to learn some more about an exciting program being offered after Christmas called MEND (Mind, Exercise, Nutrition…Do It!). Fort St. John is one of a few communities in the province promoting this chance to be active and healthy with your family.

This week several classes are getting a first taste of computer coding (programming) with a series of events called “Hour of Code”. It is fantastic to see the level of engagement as students explore how to manipulate the online world.

Please check the link below for details about two additional NID’s scheduled for Feb. 26 and May 16, 2016. These days have been added for planning towards next September’s implementation of our new curriculum. The notice also has links to the new curriculum and information about the changes for next year.

Thank you to all the student leaders and participants for the work in preparing our Remembrance Day Assembly. Also a big thank you to our special guest, Mr. Gavin Holmes.
