I hope everyone had an enjoyable break! I know I did. Welcome back.
This term aside from our academics, I am putting a strong focus on coming to class prepared, working hard in class and completing work on time. In less than 8 months, you will be heading to the High School and we have some major work ahead of us to get some good habits set in place before then.
I look forward to this term with all of you!
,Mrs. Hamilton

ADOPT-A-FAMILY
The Orange Team had adopted a family for Christmas through the Miramichi 'Early Intervention Program'. We realize that not all families get to have the type of Christmas we all wish for and we'd like the Orange Team to be able to spread some joy at this time. We are hoping that all students will be able to contribute in one manner or another. For those able to bring in items and donations, we greatly appreciate it. We will also be making posters and organizing and wrapping the presents. A letter will be going home shortly to provide a few more details.
Grade 8 Ski Trip
Near to the end of February, the Orange Team is planning a Ski Trip to Polie Mountain near Sussex, NB. We will be discussing Fundraiser ideas and hoping to get a few started before Christmas. The trip is fairly costly as we need to pay for the buses and the cost of lessons and equipment rental. We will also be looking for a few skiing/snowboarding parents to help supervise (or to supervise in at the lodge)!

We've been concentrating on getting any overdue assignments and tests completed in the last two weeks. Regularly occurring homework and assignments will be resuming the week of Nov. 28.
Reminder that Report Cards will be going home on Tuesday Nov 29 and that Parent Teacher interviews will be Thursday evening and Friday morning (Dec 1 and 2). We will be sending home requests to see some parents with the report cards, but of course all are welcome.
