At the Students' Council table, we hand out applications to students wishing to run for a grade 10 representative position. We return to collect applications, set the campaign and election dates and return with ballots on voting day. It is a spirited event for the junior high graduating class. You have a full council in place for a summer retreat. After you have visited the feeder schools, hold a grade nine orientation day for all schools before course selection day.
School is cancelled for our students so that the incoming students have the building to themselves.
Students' Council takes over at noon, providing a BBQ for all students. After these two events, invite the feeder schools to your upcoming dance. We have already informed them of this invitation during our visit to their school and again during orientation day. Questions were based on a general knowledge of our school. In the second week of September, we hold a Grade 10 Olympics.
