Graduation pictures will start on Thursday December 6th and continue right on through next week. You can sign up for appointments at the office. Make sure you arrive 5-10 minutes before your appointment as there is some paperwork that needs filling out, it also gives you time to put on the gown for the pictures. When you arrive at your appointment make sure that you pay before the session. Also be sure to dress nice and put on your best smile.
Starting on November 26 and going on until December 22, for the next few weeks, the James M. Hill Memorial High School will be supporting their annual "Tommies Give Back" activities.

Whether it'd be Christmas cards, fundraisers or donations to schools or senior homes, this year will be especially merry for everyone in our Miramichi community.

The girls hockey team took on Blackville on Wednesday, November the 21st. The girls didn’t get the outcome they were hoping for. They lost 11-1. Brooke O‘Neill scored their only goal that night. Since Brooke scored their only goal, she got the hard hat, which is for the most valuable player for that game!
