What’s Happening @ Journey September 12-16

Thank you all our Journey Families for helping to make Week One a success! We had 198 very excited grade six students meet us in the gym Tuesday morning and we were very happy to welcome them. We also had over twenty new students to our school in grades seven and eight and also two international students. We still have a few changes to make and we thank you for your patience as we get another year up and running.
