1. Relay 2026 is fast approaching. Time to Fundraise! You have one week to complete your fundraising. If you need help with your online fundraising or need a pledge envelope these are available in the main foyer! (Mrs. Sanders)
2. Over the past few days 15 athletes from NLSS participated in the SWOSSAA track and field meet. While we had many great performances and athletes who had personal bests, the competition was tough. Down in Windsor our athletes battled the competition and Arlee R, Skyla W, Arie R, and Josh S earned the right to compete at OFSAA Regionals next week in Cambridge. Arlee R made it on for 400 m and 800 m. Josh S made it on for 100 m and 800 m, Skyla W made it for the 800 m and Arie R finished second in both Junior boys Pole Vault and High Jump. Congratulations athletes! (Mr. Willemse)

7. NLSS Track Results – Over the past two days your Eagles battled the frigid winds coming off Lake Huron down in Sarnia to compete in the LKSSAA track and field championships. We had some great results considering it was some of the hardest conditions we’ve competed in all year. Qualifying for SWOSSAA championships down in Windsor this week are Maycie C, Jocelyn F, Hailey R, Arlee R, Stevie S, Josh S, Ellyot S, Skyla W, Colten P, Ben W, Arie R, Rachel A, Madi U, Matt P and Jack W. It should be noted that Josh S broke the 800 metre record by a full 3 seconds, congratulations to him as he moves on. And lastly, it should also be pointed out that it’s been over a decade since North Lambton has had an overall champion amidst it’s ranks. Big Congratulations go to Arlee R who finished with first place finishes in the 400 M and 800 M and a second place finish in the 1600 M to capture the Novice Girls Individual Championship. So again this is a huge accomplishment. Way to go ARLEE!!!
8. Super Smash Bros Tournament continues Monday in the library at lunch. (Miss Syer)
