​Wellness Week

We have had a great week at Harbour View!  Thanks to our Wellness Committee for organizing a week full of wellness activities and making healthy food available to our entire HVHS school community.  The free harvest lunch on Thursday -  salad and soup made from our garden and prepared by our Culinary Tech classes – was fantastic!  Today is Maroon Madness…such a positive way to end a great week.
 
Purse Your Passion
On Thursday, most of our grade 11 and 12 students had the opportunity to participate in Health Canada’s Pursue Your Passion tour.  It was a very engaging, interactive session where students explored the impact cannabis use can have on brain functioning, response times, etc.  The website associated with the tour has great resources you could explore at home.  In particular, under the Activity Zones section, there is a 360o Brain area where you can learn about the impact cannabis has on each area of the brain: pursueyourpassion.ca

Forensic Science
Megan Watson visited the forensic science class today to discuss forensic dentistry and how it relates to legal investigations.  The focus of her talk involved how offenders are identified by comparing dental records to a bite mark left on the victim or at the scene and on how human remains are identified based on dental records. 
Forensic Science is one of several courses only available at Harbour View!
 
Field Hockey
Good luck to our Field Hockey team who play tomorrow morning to earn a spot in provincials.  They ended the regular season in first place in the Southern Conference! 
 
Have a great weekend!
