CAVS COLORS DAY FRIDAY

1. We have Poppies at the office for anyone by donation for the legion – thanks.

2. If you have not received a 2023-2024 Student ID Card, please check at the office during an off block or at lunch.

3. Are you a female or non-binary students who is has an interest or potential skills in technology, problem solving, leadership, teamwork, communication, working with others or helping the world on both a local and global perspective?  If so, you may be interested in the Women In Tech Day, hosted by Dalhousie University.  It is an inspiring, stereotype-busting, interactive exploration which encourages young women to consider the many career pathways and ever-increasing employment openings which exist through the study of computer science and technology.

This event will help young folks realize the possibilities offered through a career in technology by hearing important messages of the future from other students, faculty, and industry. The skill sets needed by industry through the study of computer science, and IT can be linked to every aspect of study from communication, art and design, business, medicine, health, engineering, law, and more.

In addition to hearing from our industry and student mentors, your students will be working through a series of workshops that will cover cyber security, logic problem solving, communication and programming skills. With the help of our instructors and female mentors, they will be put into groups to solve logic and coding problems to build their confidence in computing! Coding experience isn’t necessary to attend the event. 


The Army Reserves are hosting a Job Fair on Wednesday, November 29th from 9am til noon.

If you are interested in what jobs and opportunities the Army Reserves has for you, and would like to attend their job Fair, please see Ms Barry ASAP, as spots are limited.

There are paid opportunities beginning in high school, so if you were thinking about the army and would like to find out how you can start earning money one evening a week and weekends, this would be helpful to attend.
