It was great to see so many staff and students dressed up for Spirit Week. A lot of sports teams were represented on Jersey Day. Some people are even still wearing Rider jerseys. Twin Day was also a big success with identical students everywhere and almost the entire staff dressed like Mr. Birch.
The male members of the high school staff will be helping to raise funds for prostate cancer research by participating in a Movember Moustache Growing Contest.

Planning for the 2011-2012 yearbook has already started! Local businesses can have a business-card size advertisement placed in the yearbook for $20 or they can sponsor a photo page for $30. Half-page and full-page advertisements are also available. If you are interested in placing an ad in the GFK yearbook please contact Melissa Sweet for details. If anyone has taken pictures of GFK students at volleyball practices or games, could you please email them to Melissa Sweet at melissa.sweet@cornerstonesd.ca so the pictures can be included in the 2011-2012 yearbook. The 2010/2011 yearbooks will be available in mid-November.
Anyone who is interested in advertising on the school's virtual signs should contact Mr. Howe at the school. For all of your Gordon F. Kells news and updates, check out the new virtual signs or visit our school blog at gfkells.wordpress.com!
