Gr. 8 Friday Tutorials run by @bnss Mentors. This month is all about community-building and connection. And, of course, having a bit of fun. The Great Eights Cup has begun as Gr. 8s are sorted into pink, green and blue colours for challenges all year long! #TeensDoingGoodThings

Leaders @BNSS giving up their time to support the Gr. 9 Volleyball Tournament tonight and to raise money for a Gr. 12 Leadership Scholarship. #bced #TeensDoingGoodThings
