•  It is only two days before the BOOK FAIR arrives.   On Wed. and Thurs., classes can come view the Book Fair and make their wish list.  Don’t forget to visit the Book Fair during our BBQ on Thursday night.

•   All students in grades 4-8 who would like to be involved in making our school environmentally friendly, please come to the library at 10:35, following these announcements. This will be our first Green Team meeting of the school year. Come and check it out. The Green Team is especially seeking some Intermediate students who are interested in taking on a leadership role with this very important school club.

•   Cross country runners – remember that there is a practice tomorrow morning, Tuesday, at 8:10 am.  You need to have both your permission and insurance forms in in order to participate.  Come with your running shoes.  Anyone arriving after 8:20 will not be able to count it as a practice.  Please remember that you need to be committed to three practices per week to remain on the team.   Meet Mr. McLean near the climber out back.  See you tomorrow. 

•  Thank you to those who have brought in donations thus far for Birchview’s Annual Terry Fox Run. Donations will be accepted daily until the run, which is scheduled for Thursday, September 26th. Donations can be brought down to the office in your class envelopes, and can be left in the container provided in the office. Teachers please make sure to check which students have brought in donations for point tracking purposes. Thank you for your support in helping us achieve our goal of exceeding last year’s total of $1,643.00.
  

• There will be a flag football tryout today during 2nd nutrition break.  Students are asked to meet with Mr. Edwards and Miss Ewaskiw outside on the field.
