Défi têtes rasées. Thursday, April 12 in the cafeteria from 12:00 to 14:00.

The goal of this organisation is to help children fighting cancer. They provide them with different services, such as financial support and home care. Leucan initiated an event called the Défi Têtes Rasées to raise money and to make the loss of their hair less dramatic. In order to do so, people raise money by putting a price on their head. If this amount is reached, they have their head shaved.

We are organizing such an event at St. Lawrence. The participants will have their head shaved in the Cafeteria with all the other candidates on D-day, which will probably be on Thursday, April 12.

We want to know if you are interested in putting a price on your head. If so, please contact me by MIO or e-mail (audrey_ann_lavoie@hotmail.com ).

Earth Day here at SLC Tuesday, April 17.  More info about the activities will be posted soon.  

SLC REACHES OUT

Thursday April 19th is a day dedicated to giving back to the community. Last year, hundreds of students and employees of Champlain St. Lawrence dedicated one day to make a difference by taking on volunteer projects that meet the needs of the Greater Quebec Area community. We want to do even better this year!

Students and staff are asked to look around them and see where they can help and donate some of their time.  Come to room 272 to register your interest or your activity.  Individually or as a group and REACH OUT. 

This year, to add a little bit more fun, we will present a trophy to the group or program that will have been the most active on this day.

We look forward to this event and join us to lend a helping hand to our community. Engage your teachers in the process!
