BHS Student Representative Council President Barry Riordon is headed to Toronto to interview as a finalist for the prestigious Loran Scholarship valued at $100,000. Barry was chosen as one of 80 finalists from a record 4,273 applications received this year.
The Canadian Junior Championships began last Saturday in Stratford Ontario, and BHS’s own Donovan Roy-Lanteigne(right) was there to represent New Brunswick as part of its’ provincial U21 championship team. Things got off to a rough start for the team as Donovan was diagnosed with strep throat and was unable to play their first game. A spare from Ontario stepped in for the game against Northern Ontario, but they were defeated 7-3. Things picked back up on Saturday when Donovan took to the ice in their defeat of the Yukon team.

Our Individual and Family Dynamics have been talking about outreach in our community. Today we decorated a tree in the front of our school with positive messages attached to Christmas balls. Next week we will wrap mittens, hats or scarfs around the tree to provide those who may need something warm to wear during the cold weather. It is our hope that it will inspire others to pay it forward to others, whether it be kind words or good deeds. Positive spreads positive!
