- NUTTY’S LOCKER – CLOSED
NEW TODAY
On Monday, December 10th, to celebrate Human Rights Day, Amnesty International will be doing a bake sale by the Social Stairs.
Alright Oakbayers, I understand that you may be wondering “Where’s Nutty?” Well I can’t tell you exactly where, but I can give you this hint:
“I am part night and part light
I am like a game
If you don’t fine Nutty it is a shame”
Good Luck!!
All students wanting to join the Puzzle Club, we meet every Monday at LUNCH on the Art Room (146).
Come to the Cafeteria Monday, December 10th through till Friday the 14th to purchase a Santa Gram. For $2 you get to write a card and send it to someone you know in the holiday spirit! All proceeds go to the Victoria Sexual Assault Center.

Connect to Care is a student lead group whose mandate is to start conversations about crucial topics that youth are facing. We are asking for Advisory Teachers to give students some time to complete the following survey (bit.ly/connect2caresurvey). This survey is anonymous and we are NOT asking for any personal information that would lead to identifying individuals. Instead, Connect to Care is hoping to gather information about the issue in order to start the conversation in our school.
Shoe Box is here! This year we are working with The Shoebox Project, they aim to help local single mothers. The donation criteria is different this year. We are mainly looking for small warm clothing like gloves or socks, hygiene items like floss or soaps. For more details check out http://www.shoeboxproject.com/ Donation drop off is in the office.
