Oct 28 Posted on October 28, 2026 Good morning, Huskies, today is Wednesday, October 28th and we are on a regular schedule. St. Paul’s Church will be offering their grilled cheese lunch today at noon and all of you are welcome. The countdown is on! The Grand in the Hand draw will take place on Friday afternoon where one lucky person will win $1000. Have you sold your tickets yet? Please turn any tickets and money into your homeroom teacher. Teachers, please send any tickets and money received to Mrs. Lamb’s room. Could any SRRC members with signed permission slips and media release forms for the KV conference, please bring them to Mrs. Lamb’s room. We have a long-standing tradition here at HHS for helping out the food bank during Halloween. Participating in “Trick or Eat” involves you going door to door on Halloween evening, announcing you’re from Hampton High and that you’re collecting donations for the food bank. If you are interested in trick or eating this Saturday, please let Mrs. Lamb know by Thursday, so she can keep a list of which areas will be covered. Gather up a group of friends, put on some costumes, and help out a worthy cause! HHS School Clothing is now on Cashless School for your parents/guardians to purchase. There are the following options: hoodies, crew neck sweaters, long sleeve shirt, t-shirt, and sweatpants. The deadline for purchase is November 13th, so DO NOT delay in ordering yours so you won’t miss out! This is the only time we will be ordering school clothing for this school year 2026-2027. They will arrive before Christmas break, so let your parents or Santa know if you would like to order something for Christmas 😊 Stay tuned for information on Grad 2027 clothing coming soon. Reminder to grads that we need candy for Scarefest. Please make sure it is peanut free and there is no gum. We have a lot of chocolate bars, so if you haven’t purchased anything yet we could use candy. A recruiter from the Canadian Armed Forces will be at HHS today during P.3 to speak to interested Gr. 11 & 12 students. They will talk about the path to both the Reserves and the Regular Forces. There is a sign-up sheet on the Guidance door. Tomorrow, Thursday October 29th we will be having a pumpkin carving contest. Each Period 3 class will pick two students to carve the pumpkin. Students can pay $1 or bring a non- perishable food item to come watch in the gym during working period, and vote for their favorite pumpkin. There will be a class prize! The food will be given to the Hampton Food Bank. Staff – Those who are getting their flu/covid vaccine this morning, please have your completed consent form filled out before your appointment time. Be sure your Medicare card number is on the form. The nurse is in the nurse’s office off the Guidance area. She will be here until 10:30 and will do walk ins as well if you haven’t already set up a time. I have consent forms on my desk if you need to fill one out. Sports: The JV boys’ basketball team will practice tonight from 6-8pm, and Friday from 5:30 – 7:15pm. The Varsity Girls Basketball Roster has been posted on the bulletin board by the gym. Practices for next week are indicated on the sheet. Puns of the Week: A cabbage and celery walk into a bar and the cabbage gets served first because he was a head. This one’s for my chemists out there: I was going to tell a sodium joke, but then I thought, “Na.” People from the UK call an elevator a “lift.” I guess they were just raised differently. Have a splendid day Huskies!
