Many of us are reminded there are only three more weeks of shopping until Christmas. However, this year St. Anne’s students in a Grade 12 religion class are advocating a “Buy-Less” Christmas. Their campaign includes raising awareness about consumerism and local poverty. Students are being encouraged to donate to the Huron County Christmas Bureau to support this group’s efforts! On Friday, Dec. 11, the St. Anne’s gym will be transformed into Paris. This year’s semi-formal, Soirée a Paris is sure to be host to a great evening for the hundreds of guests. A reminder that our Super- Amazing African Culture Night is on Thursday, Dec. 3 at St. Anne’s! Tickets are available by calling the school at 519-482-5454. All moneys raised will help to build a high school in the Masai Mara, Kenya. Deadlines for university and college applications are quickly approaching. Make sure you encourage any Grade 12 students as this is a very anxious time for them. If you need any more information regarding anything going on at St. Anne’s, check out our website: http://sacss.hpcdsb.edu.on.ca. As always, thanks for all your support and helping the Eagles to fly.
