Gilakas’la & Happy Holidays!

 

Gilakas’la & Happy Holidays!

I continue to be impressed and proud of the many different talents and positive energy that our students bring to North Island Secondary School. Since September there has been a wide variety learning activities throughout the school and many guests from our communities that have come in to share their knowledge.

We invite parents and all students to join us for our annual “Holiday Breakfast” on Friday, December 22 beginning at 8:00 am. Come in enjoy a pancake breakfast on the last day before our holidays!

I would like to pass on the sincere wishes on behalf of North Island Secondary School that everyone has a safe and enjoyable holiday season. I look forward to seeing everyone return well rested when school resumes on Tuesday, January 9.

Thank you once again for all of your support in “Bringing Learning to Life” at North Island Secondary School during 2017.

-Mr. J. Dixon, Principal
