Grade 9 and 10 students at Miramichi Valley High School recently had the opportunity to become aware of the importance of safety in the work place. Ms Candace Carnahan, a spokesperson for WorkSafeNB™ and herself a victim of a work place accident, addressed the students and pointed out to them how easily injuries can occur and that one has to be constantly on the lookout. The message she conveyed was, if you “See Something, Say Something”. In other words, let others know if a hazard is present, don’t just ignore it.
We are continuing to monitor the situation in Rexton. Exit 53 and Hwy 134 remain as one lane and we are advising parents and teachers traveling to schools in the Rexton area to avoid this exit if at all possible. Please continue to check the website as we will post information as it becomes available.
Rexton Elementary School, Eleanor W. Graham Middle School and Bonar Law Memorial High School will be open today, Friday, October 18. Staff at each school will be available to students who need emotional support.
Thank you for your patience in this matter.
