GENERAL ANNOUNCEMENTS
cc350
The cc350 enters its fifth year next FRIDAY, May 9th. From cyclists to longboarders, zero emisssion warriors will go 350 laps around Claremont's track for a total of 140km to raise money and awareness about climate change initiatives. Any students, teachers or members of the community are welcome to help us continue the tradition. Teams must register through IGS in room 264 or download the registration information from cc350victoria.ca and hand it in for the whole team. Registration is $50/team or $10/person for teams over 5 members, however sponsorship sheets are available for those who wish to offset their registration fee through community or corporate sponsorship. Students must receive permission from subject teachers to miss classes.  Students interested in submitting teams for the cc350 bike relay should see Mr. Neufeld or Mr. Mitchell in room 264 to get a registration form.   Teams must have registered by Monday, May 5th.

The event itself begins at 8:30am with registration, and wheels hit the track at 9am. There will be coffee and baked goods available for purchase in the morning, and food is available at lunch through the Mexican food truck, and the Grillverado will be on hand thanks to the rugby team.

STUDENT GOVERNMENT
Spartan Day
Today is Spartan Day and it is great to see all of the House colours in the school. TODAY, to celebrate our Spartan Spirit, hats will allowed to be worn in the school.... but only IF they are one of the House colours: red, blue, white or black.
During block 2, there will be 7 planned interruptions, as specific classes are called on the PA system to come down to various places in the school to take part in taping our Spirit Video. We apologize ahead of time for the multiple announcements, but we are going to have lots of fun making the video.
