Cole Harbour District High School

February 6th, 2020

1) The Cole Harbour Library is looking for 2-3 teen volunteers for Leading Readers.  If anyone is interested, please contact Doreen Shea at Cole Harbour Library.  You can get contact info in the Main Office.

2)  “Why have so many of us kept a sketchbook or journal at some point in our lives — no matter how brief — and what did they stir in us? The value of using art and creativity to make sense of ourselves and our surroundings has been recognized by humanity for much of our history, and so it is no surprise that we use art to learn and grow.

In our after school MacPhee Drop-In sessions, students are encouraged to experiment and explore themselves and the world around them through art in its various shapes, and will be supported by local artist and educator JJ Steeves. The Art Drop-In will have a casual and relaxed atmosphere, where the creative projects by the students are welcome to be individual pieces or group collaborations.  Please join us for our first get together on Tuesday, February 11, from 2-4pm, where we will share and discuss what each student would like to accomplish during our time together.”

3) Halifax will be hosting the Indigenous Games 2020 July 12-18th and are looking for volunteers.  Please see the bulletin board for more information.


4) Grade 12 students are reminded to check the calendar on the school website for upcoming post-secondary events. Also, any students planning to attend St. Mary’s University in September, or considering SMU, please sign up for their Pizza Luncheon next Friday. Sign up sheet is in Student Services.
