I hope everyone had the chance to enjoy the gift of time that this February holiday offers. We are headed into a busy week at school, so the extra day of rest was definitely needed and appreciated! Lots to report this week, so read on!
Speaking of reporting...your son/daughter was given his/her Semester 1 report card last Monday to bring home to you. If you did not see this and/or have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact me, Mr. Jason Gallant, or Mr. Gerald MacCormack at 888-8460 or via e mail ASAP!

WEEK IN REVIEW
We had some fun last week thanks to the Climate Crew and Activities Council. Theme days such as "Twin Day" and "Throwback Thursday" had great participation, and Valentine's Day was celebrated with Matchmaker form results, the Heart and Dating Games, and Wear Red and Pink Day. The Crew spent the week "catching" people committing Random Acts of Kindness, and more than a "few" heart shaped sucker rewards were distributed as a result. With Winter Carnival Week, the smiles can only continue! Thanks to all who did, and will, participate this coming week. You are part of our awesome school spirit! Enjoy the pictures below:

TOSH WINTER CARNIVAL 2014!
This is Winter Carnival Week coming up at Three Oaks, and our theme mirrors that of the Olympics: We Are Winter! We will be celebrating our Canadian Pride on Wednesday and encourage everyone to come decked out in Red and White that day! We are keeping our fingers crossed for TOSH Alum, Heather Moyse's, success in her two-man bobsled Olympic event this week, as well. There may be a last minute trip to the gym to cheer her on to victory Wednesday, so stay tuned! In the meantime, take a peek at the list of events that our Activities Council have planned for the week!:
