Sabre Scene

Sabre Families,

I hope everyone had a good Family Day and a chance to spend time relaxing, reflecting, and connecting.

The month of February is a fast one and there is no doubt that time is flying by. The day light hours are increasing and this week calls for sunshine and a warming trend - lots to look forward to!

This past week we held a scholarship and bursary presentation for the Sal community which was very well attended. Thank you to our Parent Council for the work involved in making many of these presentations a reality and ultimately benefiting our community with information.

This week bring us to another quick four day week which is highlighted by another fantastic information session on Thursday, February 20 at 6:30 p.m. Specifically, we will have a presentation on the Registered Apprenticeship Program and all the potential opportunities for students moving forward.

As always, please do not hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns.
