Students are busy studying and writing exams, and Wednesday evening is the official dress rehearsal for "HMS PINAFORE". It has been a busy, exciting week already!
SCENT-FREE - RJC has attempted to be a scent-free environment in respect of those students and staff with serious sensitivities to perfumes, colognes, etc. As we gather this weekend at the musical performances, at Rosthern Mennonite Church Sunday morning, and again in the gymnasium in the afternoon, we would appreciate your co-operation in not wearing scented lotions, perfumes. colognes, etc. We have a number of students, staff, parents and alumni who will be on campus this weekend and who have extreme scent allergies. Please help make this an enjoyable weekend for everyone.
