Hey grade 9's, we hope you’re enjoying your first week as Lions! To kick off the school year, student council has planned an event just for you. Colour night is next Friday, September 16th, and it will be tons of fun! Build new friendships and show off your spirit by dressing up in your assigned colour, playing games, then end the night off with a dance! Tickets are $8 and will be sold at the back of the cafeteria starting September 9th. It's going to be a night you will never forget, so we hope to see you there!
Do you want to help run Grade 9 Colour Night? If you are in grade 12 and are interested in volunteering to run activities or lead groups at colour night, please sign up on the list outside of TLC or talk to Mrs Ristov before the end of the week.
