Congratulations to the team and coaches on a great effort and for the determination they showed throughout. - Victoria Day Long Weekend
Just a reminder that this upcoming weekend will be a long weekend for Victoria Day. Students will return to school on Tuesday, May 19th (day 9 of the cycle). - Local Accommodations
Do you have a house available to rent to teams that come to Baccalieu Collegiate for tournaments? Please reach out ASAP so that we can add you to our list. We have already included the Airbnb locations that are listed, as well as BnB and motels in the area. Anything extra would be great to add as well. - Final Stretch!
There are now less than 2 months left in the school year, including exams. We would like to encourage students to continue to stay on top of their work and begin to think about and organize for final exams. - Keeping our Community Clean
Please have a conversation with your child regarding putting their waste in a garbage bin, on or off school property. We're all a part of the community and want to ensure that we keep it in good condition. So, whether it's driving down to the wharf, walking to Gasland, or just hanging out at school during lunchtime, please respect our surroundings and put garbage where it belongs. - Attendance
