On Tuesday, February 7, in support of International Development Week, students got together during lunch hour to make friendship bracelets for an elementary school in Uganda. Ten students and three teachers will be visiting Uganda this summer and will deliver these bracelets in person to Kimunyu Nursery and Primary School in Ibanda.

Grade 8’s were away at camp and Grade 9’s had a field trip last week but all are welcome to our next Friendship Bracelet Making lunch hour on Tuesday, February 14. in Room 103. What better way to celebrate Valentine’s Day than making something for someone else?

For more information on Uganda Trip, contact Ms. Stanger.

Our next Service Saturday is on February 25 and students have the chance to volunteer sorting food donations at the Food Bank with students from Saints, preparing food and serving lunch at Belkin House – Salvation Army or removing invasive holly at Pacific Spirit Park, UBC.

Learn more about these opportunities at the upcoming Senior School Assembly. All students can sign-up on the Community Service Board and the deadline is Monday, February 20.

Our next Service Saturday is April 28 so save the date now!
