At Oak Bluff Community School we've decided to go paperless with our newsletter. There are two advantages to this:

- The saving of paper is a savings in costs and more importantly another step in our ongoing commitment to sustainability.

- By offering news in this format, we can now provide our community with real-time news as it happens, instead of waiting until the end of the month to send out information.

TERRY FOX WALK


WAY TO GO!  We beat our goal of $400.00 by raising $431.25 during our annual Terry Fox walk.  Your generosity is greatly appreciated.


SOCCR RESULTS
The grade 4-6 divisional soccer tournament was a great time.  Both teams played hard with great enthusiasm.  The boys tied their last game in the consolations round.  The girls made it to the semi-finals, where they lost.


The grade 7/8 divisional soccer tournament although slightly colder in the morning, turned out to be quite beautiful and fun filled.  Both teams were small with very little or no substitutions, and played with sportsmanship.  The boys played 4 tough games ending 5th in their pool and unfortunately did not make the playoffs.  The girls played 4 games with making it to the finals, where they lost to JA Cuddy.
