Due to recent activities with cell phones, the school has decided to prohibit all students from bringing personal electronic devices to school. This includes cell phones, ipods,ipads,gameboy, etc. If a student is caught with one, it will be brought to the office and a parent or guardian will be called to pick it up.
Eel Ground First Nation School will be planting a school garden again this year. We are doing things differently. We will be using raised beds (boxed gardens). We need volunteers to help maintain it over the summer. If you are interested please call the school at 627-4615. Any help would be appreciated.
Due to the construction going on, we would like to remind parents to make sure that you speak to your children about walking or driving their bicycles to and from school. The roads are busier with heavy trucks driving back and forth so students must be aware of the dangers traveling the roads.
How do I get enough energy to be physically active? Many factors influence our energy level during the day: what we eat, how well and how long we sleep, our stress level, etc. It is important to assess our lifestyle to identify if there is anything that can be changed. If you feel too tired to exercise, reassess you sleeping habits. If you feel you do not have enough time in a day, reassess where you spend your time and evaluate if there is a way to be more efficient.
