I hope this note finds you well!

First, a big thank you to Denise Dias and the PTO for their incredible creativity and effort in bringing the Killam Building Project Tree to life for the REF Festival of Trees. It’s such a beautiful representation of our school community, and we’re so grateful!

We have a full week of learning ahead of us this week! It’s been wonderful to see students working on "perspective taking" with their classmates this month.

Looking ahead, we’re excited for Spirit Week next week! The daily themes are listed below, so be sure to help your child join in on the fun as we celebrate our Killam Koala spirit.

Thank you for your continued support, and we look forward to another great week ahead!

Warmly,
Lindsey Fulton, Principal

PLEASE:

• Pull ALL the way up! This means to the end of the school building.
• Students should exit anywhere along the sidewalk and Ms. Hallett or I will assist them into the building.
• ALL students being dropped off from 8:15-8:25 am in the line must enter through the front door
• Students should exit the car independently. Parents/Guardians should remain in their vehicles
• NO left hand turns out of the front loop. This congests road traffic.
