The VHES Spirit Team have worked hard to put on a cultural fair for the students and staff. They researched a variety of different cultures. Between Friday and Monday all of the classes had the opportunity to learn about the cultures being presented.
Thank you to everyone who sent in items for the gift swap
This year. As you can see by the pictures it was very successful.
Although the official Adopt a School fundraising program is over, you can still support our school with the purchase of gift cards and book donations.

If you know anyone who enjoys reading this would make the perfect Christmas gift, while supporting our school library! For every $25 gift card we get $10 to spend on books! How cool is that?!
Thank you to everyone who supported us during the original fundraiser and another thank you to everyone who purchases gift cards now.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the book fair. The fair was definitely a success and we will be able to get lots of great books for the library.
We had a guess the page contest for each division. Students had to guess how many pages were in the pile of books for each division.
For the primary division – Nathan from Ms. Duval’s class had the closest guess in all divisions, with a guess that was 1 page away from the actual amount of pages.
For the junior division – Jenna from Ms. Ouellet’s class won.
For the intermediate division – Brayden from Ms. St. Amant’s class won.
Stay tuned for the winner of the $25 for you and $25 for your class draw.
