Good afternoon Grizzly Families!
This week at Glamorgan many students participated in Halloween and dressed up in exciting and unique costumes! We also had a Junior High Pep Rally today which closed the first section of their Homeroom Challenge. It was so fun to see the number of students engaged and excited about all the activities.

Science Fair
The Glamorgan School Science Fair (GSSF) is beginning again. All Grade 5 to 9 students are welcome to attend our first meeting on Tuesday, November 5, at lunch. Students must bring their lunches to the meeting and inform their lunchroom supervisors. During the first meeting, we will be outlining expectations, providing a meeting schedule, and generating interest. There are no requirements to be in the science fair other than an interest in pursuing a passion project in science or engineering. We hope to see as many students as possible.
