BEAR Awards
Bear Award recipients for September (Bravery) will be announced this week. Stay tuned to @LakeshoreCBE on Instagram for a full list of recipients.
Terry Fox Run Update
Our annual Terry Fox Run was held on October 3 and it was another great community event as our students enjoyed a beautiful fall day walking the loop around Auburn Bay. As a school, we raised $2838 for a great cause. Although we were short of our fundraising goal, we did manage to hit a couple incentive markers, and our staff will follow-through in the days ahead. Thank you to all those who donated.
