​Allergy Awareness

Next week, all students at Harbour View will receive training on how to use an Epi-pen along with information on allergies and anaphylaxis.  As you are hopefully aware, all schools in ASD-S are nut-free and scent-free.  If you can encourage your students to be mindful of this that would be appreciated.
 
Wellness Week
Next week is the first Wellness Week of the year at HVHS.  Our Wellness committee and our Student Council have planned activities throughout the week – with healthy snacks available during morning break, a free harvest lunch on Thursday, and our Fall Formal Dance at Lily Lake on Wednesday evening.  Tickets for the dance must be purchased in advance – and are limited to the capacity of the venue.
Wednesday morning will begin with a variety of student-lead wellness sessions – and Friday afternoon will be our annual Maroon Madness activities.
Thanks to the staff and students involved in organizing these activities!
 
Student Pick-Up
We would like to remind parents that if a student needs to be picked up on Douglas Avenue, the side opposite HVHS is the appropriate location to do this.  Our side of the avenue has a designated bicycle lane which should not be blocked.
As well, please be mindful of blocking traffic on Brunswick Place and in our staff parking lot at the end of the day.  Already this year we have had emergency vehicles blocked from accessing the school due to cars blocking our driveway.  Douglas Avenue opposite the school is the best location for picking up students.
 
Baseball/Softball
Our Baseball and Softball teams wrap up their seasons this weekend after both earning spots in the provincial championships!  We wish them luck this weekend in Miramichi and Fredericton.
 
Sunshine Cafe
Many students, for a variety of reasons, do not have the ability to bring a nutritious lunch from home or purchase a lunch at school.  Each day, one of our classrooms (Sunshine Café) is open to these students.  We can always use donations to help supply the food for this program.
For the month of October we are looking for fresh fruit (apples, bananas, oranges) as well as canned chunky soups and chilis.  Any donations can be handed in at the main office, or to Mrs. Scott in Room 122.
 
Emergency Protocols
Throughout the school year, all schools practice a variety of emergency response protocols.  Information is attached about the protocols in place at HVHS.  We will be holding our first Lockdown drill within the next few school days.  Parent Info Letter - Emergency Procedures.pdf
