Thursday, April 25th - Week 2

“We would like to begin by acknowledging that we are in Mi’kma’ki (MEEG-MA-GEE), the traditional territory of the Mi’kmaq people”. We want to continue to honour our promise to them to live in peace and friendship.”

Highland Park has started to collect old and broken cell phones! Bring your cell phones to Bradbury’s room and put them into the box near her desk! Let’s help our planet!

Summer Camp Opportunity! African Nova Scotian and Indigenous students in grade 8 and 9 who are interested in having fun and learning about health careers should see Mr. Lang asap. Applications are due 3 May for the ANS summer camps and 27 May for the Indigenous summer camps!

The dance tonight is on!! Entry fee is $2, snacks will be available. The dance starts at 6:30 and goes until 8:30. The sign in deadline for the dance will be extended until the end of break - please remember all guests must be approved by their home school.

Read Tuesdays and Thursdays only:
Today the AIR room is open. This starts at 12:30 in Mr. Masotti’s room. Remember to attend if your teacher has asked you to. All other students welcome to come and work quietly.
Ms. J offers extra help at this time too!

Sports:
There will not be girls or boys softball this school year. This is due to the wet field conditions and conflicts with track and field, grade 8 assessments and grade 9 trips. HPJH is looking forward to defending last year’s finals appearance next year.

Track and Field -
:-) Have a great day Highland Park!
