Library Club
The annual Summer Book Sale is happening in the Library this week.  Stop by to get books as low as 5 cents!  There are plenty of categories from fiction to animals to sports.  Good for reading on the beach!

A reminder message and request to staff and students.  Our caretaker has been finding rocks in the doors of the building throughout the day.  Please, DO NOT put rocks in the doors to keep them open as it is a security risk. HRCE schools need to be secure buildings to ensure everyone’s safety. Again, please do not put rocks in the doors to prop them open.

Special congratulations to Owen Jewer who came 3rd in the 100m, and Tim Delong who WON the 800m. All athletes are reminded to return their singlets and track spikes to the gym ASAP.
