Mitten & Sock Tree
As you are aware, our division theme is "Inspired by Christ on a Journey to encounter, nurture, and serve." This year, our school is focused on the theme of service and our social justice team have planned many meaningful projects.
As we approach colder months, we want to ensure that all children in our community have the warm clothing they need. This year, our school is organizing a “Mitten and Sock Tree” initiative to collect new or gently used mittens, socks, and other warm clothing items for those in need. We kindly ask for your cooperation in making this effort a success.
We currently have 3 trees in our Gathering Area where you or your child can drop off your donations. We are excited to see our trees fill up with warm offerings from our community. Your generosity will directly support local families and help keep our community’s children warm during the winter season. Please bring donations before December 6.
Please consider involving your child(ren) in this project if you are able to contribute. In teaching our children to be like Jesus, we can point to His example of service to others. As we do the things He did by serving our brothers and sisters, we become more and more like our Savior.
Choir - Grade 3 and 4
We’re excited to announce that the Grade 3 and 4 Choir began this past Tuesday! Sessions will take place every Tuesday from 11:30-12:00 (lunch recess) in the Grade 4 breakout room, led by Mrs. Cuellar and Mrs. Gringhuis. This is a wonderful opportunity for students to develop their singing skills, work as a team, and showcase their talents!
Choir students are asked to commit to attending each week to ensure consistency and progress. We look forward to hearing their beautiful voices!
Intramurals - Grade 4
We are pleased to announce that Grade 4 Intramurals have started! Students have the opportunity to participate every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 11:30-12:00 (lunch recess) under the guidance of Mrs. Hebert. Our first sport will be soccer, where students can learn new skills, enjoy friendly competition, and stay active!
Intramurals provide a fantastic way for students to engage with their peers and develop teamwork skills. We look forward to seeing your child join us for intramurals in the gym!
Engagement Nights - Parent Input Requested!
To support our parents, we are considering offering evening Engagement Sessions throughout the school year. For the past several years, we have held French Immersion Engagement Nights designed to support our French Immersion parents with tools for students in acquiring a second language. Because of the success of these evenings, we are considering offering more sessions on a variety of topics.
We need your assistance to determine if parents would be interested in attending Engagement Nights, and if so, what topics would be most helpful.
Please take a moment to fill out a very short survey using the following link: Engagement Night Parent Feedback 24-25.
This survey will be open until November 19. We will communicate through our Week at a Glance our next steps based on your feedback. Thank you for taking the time to do this survey!
