The Lunch Counter will take place on Friday April 25. Place your orders no later than Wednesday April 23. Place your order today. Thank you for your attention and your support.
Days of Significance: Holy Thursday is a Christian feast during Holy Week that marks the beginning of the Paschal Triduum, and commemorates the Washing of the Feet and Last Supper of Jesus Christ with the Apostles.
Mr. Flegas - Good morning, Bowmore!
This is your Caring and Safe Schools reminder: we all play a role in creating a safe, respectful, and welcoming school. Be kind in what you say and what you do. Keep hands to yourself and speak with care. Offensive language and violence are not acceptable at Bowmore. Remember that washrooms are safe spaces for everyone. That means school rules apply at all times, even in the washroom. Help keep the space clean and safe for others. Older students—please remember that younger students share these spaces with you. Set the example by respecting everyone’s privacy and dignity. Let’s continue treating everyone with respect, stop mean, rude, or hurtful words and gestures, and start choosing kindness and helping others.
Office - Attention students! Please remember that the staff room is for staff only. Students are not permitted to enter the staff room at any time. If you need to speak with a teacher, please wait outside or ask the office for assistance. Thank you for respecting this space.
Office - This is an important reminder for all students: please do not leave any food items in your lockers. Food that’s left behind can spoil, create strong odors, and attract insects or rodents—which makes the school less clean and safe for everyone. If you are using a locker, it must have a lock on it. Beginning Friday, April 25, we will lock any open lockers without locks to help keep everyone’s belongings secure. Let’s all do our part to keep our school fresh and welcoming by taking food home at the end of each day.
Days of Significance: Good Friday is a solemn Christian holy day commemorating the crucifixion and death of Jesus Christ, observed on the Friday before Easter Sunday, and is a day of mourning, reflection, and often fasting.
World Heritage Day, also known as the International Day for Monuments and Sites, is observed annually on April 18. It was established in 1982 by the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS) and later adopted by UNESCO in 1983. The day was created to raise awareness about the importance of preserving cultural and historical sites worldwide.
Easter Monday marks the second day of Eastertide, the period of celebration following Easter Sunday, and is a time to reflect on the resurrection of Jesus Christ and the promise of new life.
Office - Attention Students! You are not permitted to play near the fence by the parking lot at any time. For everyone’s safety, students should also never throw sticks or rocks, especially toward parked cars. Staff supervising in this area, please redirect students away from the parking lot fence and reinforce these expectations during outdoor times. Thank you!
Ms. Jarvis - Overdue Library Books: A big shout out to Mme. Riddles’ Room 8 class who got our checked out book counter over 14,000 books. Well done Bowmore! On another note, I would like everyone to do a thorough home, locker, desk and classroom check for any library books. There are over 65 pages of overdue late slip reminders. Please do your part and return any library books that you are done with before the Easter Break.If you have a clean record, you are able to check out new books for the break. Thank you!
