GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS

The Stelly's Support Staff are deeply appreciative to our students, teachers, admin team, families and neighbours during the recent job action.  Thank you so much for your patience, encouragement, support, and many acts of kindness.  We are very happy to be back in the school doing what we love: supporting our students.

Last weekend, Cailen Miller, Paiden Jenkinson, Cole Bains, Haldon Craig, Liam Ayres, Katie Nethercott, Emma Winter-Pelkey, Jillian Burell, and Izzy Miller represented Stellys at the BC High School Swim Chamionships in Richmond BC. The team won 4 provincial medals in the 100 free and 100 IM (Gold and Gold, Liam Ayres), the 50 free (Gold, Haldon Craig) and the 50 fly (Silver, Haldon Craig). The girls, boys, and mixed relay teams also qualified for several finals and did an awesome job of representing our school both in and out of the water. If you get a chance today, please congratulate our team (including two provincial champions), on a job well done :)

Homework Help is available every morning from 7:10am in the Learning commons and after school on Monday, Tuesday and Thursday til 4pm.
