Attention Blazers! This year the ADP students are once again spearheading a food drive for the South Shore Food Share, which serves the communities of Crapaud, Borden, Bedeque, and Kinkora. Farm Credit Canada has canceled their nationwide 'Drive Away Hunger' drive, so where will be a few changes this year. Were will not be collection bags this year so students are asked to bring in their food and place it in their grade's collection box. Instead of a Homeroom challenge, they ...have decided to host a grade-level challenge. Here are the following collection rooms: Grade 9 - Room 126 Grade 10 - Room 124 Grade 11 - Room 205 Grade 12 - Room 212 We will accept donations from October 5 - 9, and then we will let the food sit for the long weekend.

JERSEY DAY ON WEDNESDAY!!! On Wednesday wear your favorite jersey as the student council will have a jersey day in memory of the three Westile Students who recently passed away. Donations will be greatly appreciated if you wish to donate. The student council and the school will match any donations that come in. The donations will be split towards the different causes and funds set up on behalf of their families.
