Athletic Apparel Website:
We have a new athletic apparel website that is available for all Grammar community members year-round. You do not have to be on a specific athletic team to order any of the apparel. We have recently added many different Under Armour options in both men and ladies clothing. There is a wide variety of sports to choose from and we also have general terms that can be used such as "Athletics" and "Alumni". Any questions can be directed to our Athletic Director, Mr. Joseph via email @ sjoseph@hgs.ns.ca
