However, the next week and a half before Christmas is going to be very hectic, so I decided to use this space to let everyone everyone know what exactly is going going on. We are right in the middle of the second Spirit Week of the year. Every day this week is packed full of fun-filled, spirit-including activities, ending ending on Friday with the third annual annual Christmas in the Caribbean Caribbean dance, to be put on by BHS' own Dave Rice and Jim Marshall. Marshall. Tomorrow is also the day that we kick off our big fund raising event for this year. After After taking a survey a , few months ago, we decided that chocolate covered almonds were the way to go. After searching high and low for the best deal, fundraising minister Laura Russel has ordered us 300 cases of chocolate covered almonds. That works out to approximately approximately 9600 boxes or roughly 480,000 chocolate covered almonds. That's a lot of almonds! We arc depending on the community to support us by buying the almonds when one of our many dedicated dedicated students comes trudging through the snow on their Christmas vacation and asks you to please make a purchase. You might even want to buy two; they're really great almonds. almonds. The money that we raise is going to go towards the phys. ed. department, who can always use some more money to take school teams to other schools, the music department needs money as does the drama drama department who are going all out this year to put on the best performance of West Side Story ever. At the request of one of the vice-principals, we are also looking into making a donation to a children's wish foundation that grants the wishes of chronically ill children. children. Bowmanville Audio- Vision has offered to let the students' council have a ghetto blaster with a double cassette and CD player at a greatly reduced reduced price to be given to the student who shows excellence in the selling of chocolate covered covered almonds. Preparation for the Christmas Christmas Concert is also well under way. On Friday, December 20th, the students will come down to the auditorium in two groups, one in the morning the other in the afternoon, to watch the brave students who have signed up to perform in the concert, do their thing. Tyler Gibson, the minister of social ~? affairs, is organizing the concert concert and we hope that it will be as big a success as it has been in past years. That's all I have to say this week.

Just ask anyone in Mrs. Falls' class about the museum's museum's long and interesting history! Mr. Duval's grade six class had a wonderful day at Ontario Place, where they saw the film, "The Blue Planet" and at the Ryerson Theatre, where Sherlock Sherlock Holmes solved the mystery mystery of "The Hound of the Baskervilles."
