Congrats to girls rugby on their big 57-0 win over Eastern Shore. Chelsea Dicks had 5 trys, along with Zaria 2, Maggie Grant 2, Deanna Symes and Sam Melancon with 1 each. Well done Kingfishers!

Boys rugby had a tough loss to Eastern Shore last night. The team plays today at 4:45 against PA at Mainland Commons. Good luck!

Thursday May 17 is the International Day Against Homophobia and Transphobia. To honour the day the GSA will host a day of social silence. Help us honour those silenced by violence. Pick up a sticker in the lobby on the morning of the 17th and wear it through the day. You will then be socially silent through the day. You are welcome to come eat lunch that day in 202 to help keep your social silence. Then join us outside on Tuesday the 22nd for a lunch time party with outdoor games! There will be Bubbles!!

Anyone interested in participating in the water ceremony taking place at First Lake should see Theresa Meuse or Ms. Trenholm. This will be happening Monday, May 28 starting at 9:00 at First Lake.
