December marks both the end of the 2024 calendar year and, with the season of Advent, the beginning of a new liturgical year and the Gospel of Luke. On December 24, Pope Francis will open the Holy Door at St. Peter’s Basilica to usher in the beginning of the Jubilee Year. The Jubilee of Hope will take place from December 24, 2024 - Christmas Eve to January 6, 2026, the feast of the Epiphany. The Jubilee Year is especially connected to the Holy Doors in all of the papal basilicas in Rome, which are bricked up in between jubilee years and only opened for these special periods, when prayerful pilgrims have the opportunity to gain special blessings (called indulgences) for themselves and their loved ones. In total, there are seven Holy Doors around the world. Four in Rome, one in Spain, one in France and one in Quebec City at Notre-Dame de Québec Cathedral-Basilica. In keeping with our promotion of our Catholic identity, Pope Francis encourages us to place Jesus Christ and the teachings of the Catholic church at the centre of our Pilgrims of Hope journey during this Jubilee Year. To be pilgrims, represents our journey in this life as we connect to our faith and relationship with Christ. We are called to “pilgrim” with one another building relationships of love, peace, and our solidarity towards each other. Hope is found through the actions of those who Pilgrim following Jesus’ example. God’s Pilgrims bring communities hope, peace and strengthened faith.

Hope...is the virtue of relying on God. It keeps us searching for true happiness and sustains us during hard times or discouragement.

In December –we celebrate the virtue of Hope. God helps us to keep on working for a more peaceful world even when we feel discouraged.

A hopeful person is…

• Inspired and inspires others.
• Optimistic.
• One who seeks good things from life.
• One who sees the good in the world.

We begin the season of Advent, the beginning of the new liturgical year. This is a time of patient and prayerful waiting. As Catholics, we know that the Advent season is about preparing our hearts and

souls for the birth of Jesus our Saviour. During the month of December, students and staff will be preparing for the coming of the Lord Jesus through prayer , acts of kindness and outreach. We pray that you and your family are able to hold onto the true spirit of Christmas: to work together to prepare for the coming of the Light of the World and to make it a season of love, joy, and hope.

On behalf of all of the staff of St. Jude, we extend warmest wishes for a peaceful and joyous

Christmas. May the spirit of Christmas bring you peace and the warmth of Christmas grant you love.

We look forward to seeing your child back at school, ready to learn on Monday, January 6, 2025.

God Bless,

Mr. C. Daniel

Principal

This month we will celebrate the virtue of HOPE. A person with hope…

♦ Expects the best to happen for everyone

♦ Hold on to their dreams

♦ Always count on God to help them in tough situations

♦ Trust that things will work out in God’s way

♦ Look for something good to come out of problems

♦ Are looking forward to life’s blessings

♦ Set and stick to their own goals

We believe that God comes to us as a real human who can show us the way of life.

We understand that both the world and its people are from God and so are essentially good. Further more, God has given us this Advent season year after year in order to focus our minds and our hearts on the good all around us.

Year after year, we are reminded that God chose to send His Son to us because we are worth it. God knows how great we can be when we all come together.

The season of Advent begins with the fourth Sunday before Christmas. This year, the liturgical season of Advent began Sunday, December 1st.

“Advent” is a Latin word meaning “the coming”. Dur ing the season of Advent, Christians across the world prepare for the celebration of the coming of the Lord

into the world through the birth of His Son, Jesus Christ. Advent is a time to celebrate light in the midst of darkness, as symbolized best by the Advent Wreath.

At St. Jude, we emphasize the implications of the birth of our Saviour through our Christian actions. It is a time to prepare the way, to make God real each and every day through prayer, charity and social justice.

On December 17th at 10:30 a.m. and again at 6 p.m., St. Jude Primary students and staff will share a Advent celebration through song and laughter. This presentation will include readings and live songs from all Primary classes at St. Jude.

On December 17th, from 6 p.m to 8 p.m. families are invited to register and join us for our Christmas Carousel. Activities are filling up fast!

Please be reminded that the school is closed for Christmas holidays Monday, December 23, 2024, to Friday, January 3, 2025 (inclusive)

The first day of classes in the New Year is January 6th, 2025.

The holidays are likely to face some disruptions again this year given the evolving nature of the pandemic. The holidays this year will be unlike any we’ve experienced before. Unfortunately, that means they’re more likely to be a source of stress rather than what they’re meant to be: a chance to share the festive season with family and friends. That’s to be expected, especially during a year in which we’ve faced more than our share of hardships, challenges and difficulties. To help put troubles behind you and look forward to a prosperous new year, here are some tips for getting more cheer out of your holidays:

• Don’t be perfect; be you: Set realistic expectations for yourself. Keep your plans and activities simple.

• Pace yourself: Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, Kwanza and New Year’s Eve can all be busy times. Remember, the season lasts for weeks. Get organized, and break your preparations into small steps.

• Budget wisely: It is easy to buy on credit and ignore the bills until after the holidays. Set your limit ahead of time.

• Get into the spirit: Deck the halls. Decorate the yard. Too often adults miss out on the simple pleasures of celebrating the

holidays.

• Take time out for yourself: Unwind and pamper yourself. Try relaxation techniques, meditation, deep-breathing exercises or even just a bubble bath.

• Embrace family: Look forward to reuniting with relatives this holiday, even if it’s only over the phone or via video chat. Cherish the connection with loved ones, and make an effort to be as relaxed, positive and cheerful as you can.

• Celebrate safely: Give your body a gift this year by treating it with respect. Try not to overindulge in sweets and goodies.

Know your limits when it comes to alcohol. Maintain social distancing, wear a mask when called for and remember to wash your hands frequently

• Make New Year’s resolutions: Setting goals challenges us to aim for higher fulfilment and self-improvement as we look forward to a better and happier new year.

The safety and viability of student excursions heavily relies on the availability of vetted parent volunteers. In order to optimize the safety and well-being of our students Vunerable Sector Checks (Level 3) are a minimum requirement volunteers must have for all trips and events at school.

(formerly known as a Police Vulnerable Sector Check)

This check is intended for people who work or volunteer with vulnerable people (i.e., school teacher, coaches, parent volunteer). A vulnerable person can be a child under 18 years, elderly and/or disabled.
Please note that if the position you are applying to or volunteering for does not meet criteria for running this level of search, additional information will be required before we are able to complete your records check.

This check will show:

• Every summary conviction if the request is made within 5 years after the date of the summary conviction
• Every finding of guilt under the Youth Criminal Justice Act (Canada) in respect of the individual during the applicable period of access under that Act
• Any conviction for which a pardon has been granted if disclosure is authorized under the Criminal Records Act (Canada)
• Every criminal offence of which the individual has been found guilty and received an absolute discharge within 1 year after the date of the absolute discharge
• Every criminal offence of which the individual has been found guilty and received an conditional discharge within 3 years after the date of the conditional discharge
• Every criminal offence for which there is an outstanding charge or warrant to arrest in respect of the individual
• Every court order made against the individual except: court orders made under the Mental Health Act or under Part XX.1 of the Criminal Code (Canada), court orders made in relation to a charge that has been withdrawn, restraining orders made against the individual under the Family Law Act, the Children's Law Reform Act or the Child and Family Services Act
• Every criminal offence with which the individual has been charged that resulted in a finding of not criminally responsible on account of mental disorder if the request is made within 5 years after the date of finding
• Any non-conviction information authorized for exceptional disclosure in accordance with section 10 of the LEARN Guidelines

Fees

Vulnerable Sector Checks cost $35.

Fingerprinting Fee Peel Police $27.

Fingerprinting Fee RCMP $25.

Students are asked to ensure that they have a pair of

indoor shoes at school. As the weather gets wetter, we

ask that children change their footwear when they

come inside in an effort to keep our classroom floors

clean.

Children are expected to participate in Daily Physical Education activities and are reminded to dress for

the weather. It is recommended the children of all grades have a change of clothing at school in the event that they get wet.

As the colder weather approaches we are noticing an increase in the number of students who are arriving at school by car. We kindly remind parents to use the Kiss and Ride efficiently. Please kindly pull-up as far as possible to allow for as many cars to access the kiss and ride area. In addition, please do not park or leave your car along the kiss and ride lane.

We also ask that students come prepared for their day in appropriate clothing. Students will be provided space to safely store indoor shoes as cold weather footwear becomes necessary. Please note, students spend a minimum of 2 periods outdoors for outdoor learning time, plus 20 minute lunch recess time. As such, it is critical that students come dressed for the weather. Here are a few helpful tips for dressing for the cold.

BUS CANCELLATIONS During the winter months, inclement weather and/or poor road conditions may cause the disruption of bus transportation. If buses are cancelled in a certain Weather Zone, schools in that Zone will remain open to students and staff. There is no distribution of learning devices in anticipation of inclement weather-related bus cancellations. While students unable to attend in person due to transportation cancellations are not required to access learning materials in the Learning Management System (LMS), they can if they choose to. Learning activities posted in the LMS specifically for inclement weather days provide opportunities for consolidation, curriculum enrichment or practice of skills already taught. It is acknowledged that teachers will be supporting in-person students and therefore may have limited availability to support students who are not in attendance. For students unable to attend in person, no remote access to the classroom will take place. Learning for students will be self-directed. Please be assured that teachers have been advised not to introduce new concepts on days on which buses have been cancelled. As always, parents/guardians can contact their child’s teacher if they have any questions or require support using communication methods that have been established by the teacher. Fully remote classes will continue as usual on bus cancellation days. FULL SYSTEM CLOSURE If there is a full system closure, where all DPCDSB schools and facilities are closed to students and staff, there is no switch to synchronous learning for the day. Similar to bus cancellation days, students can access learning activities posted in the LMS specifically for inclement weather days that provide opportunities for consolidation, curriculum enrichment or practice of skills already taught. This also applies to students in remote-only classes. As always, parents/guardians can contact their child’s teacher if they have any questions or require support using communication methods that have been established by the teacher.

When a student receives an injury/bump to the head (however minor), it is a Board Policy that we inform parents. You will be contacted by phone, a phone message will be left at one of your contact numbers. This is precautionary only and we ask that you check your child when they get home for any signs of a concussion or illness.

At St. Jude school we encourage our students to use our water refill stations. Please bring in your reusable water bottles.

Learning potential increases through small, frequent drinks of water throughout the day. Water is important for almost every process that takes place in the body. Drinking water regularly through the school day helps to:

• Improve learning and concentration.

• Prevent tooth decay.

• Reduce feelings of thirst, tiredness and irritability.

• Prevent short and long term health problems.

We can get H20 from beverages and food. Our bodies absorb water from beverages and from foods like yogurt, soup and watery fruits and vegetables

The Ministry of Education states that it is the responsibility of each parent to ensure that his/her child be in attendance and at scheduled activities on time and with the proper materials required for full participation. At St. Jude School, we teach children to be on time for their scheduled classes. Regular and punctual online or in-person attendance on the part of the student is vital to the process of learning. Students who are habitually late or absent for class will miss essential parts of the program. Also, when a child is late, the entire class is disrupted and program is affected for all. It is essential that your child be punctual in order to achieve maximum success. Please reinforce the importance of promptness with your child. Should your child have a legitimate reason to be late or absent at any time, please provide them with a written note to assist us in appropriate follow-up. Frequent late arrivals or absences without appropriate reason from parents/guardians may result in a phone call, letters home, and if necessary an attendance conference. We want to work together with you to provide support in ensuring your child is successful at school. Please use the School Messenger - Safe Arrival reporting system to inform the school of late, early dismissal or absent students. We must hear from a PARENT or AUTHORIZED

GUARDIAN. Thank you in advance for your support.

BYOD– Bring Your Own Devices

Our vision of education in Dufferin-Peel Catholic schools is rooted in the gospel values of faith, hope and love. All sectors of society, including the education sector, must work to keep pace with our rapidly changing world. Our teaching and learning environments - our schools and classrooms - must continue to change and adapt to ensure that our students continue to succeed. Our students and staff are already engaged as 21st century learners, living and shaping ways of being, becoming and belonging in our world. St. Jude School is a PED ready school. DPCDSB Personal Electronic Device Use form with Wi-Fi Network Student Agreement will be signed for all new registrations. It is also be available on our website for download. Please read it over and have yourself and your child sign it so that they may bring their devices to school to be used for educational purposes as directed by staff.

Personal Electronic Devices on Board Premises and/or Board Sanctioned Events for Educational Purposes:

The Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board acknowledges the value of the use of technology for learning. Students are permitted to register and use personal electronic devices (PEDs) on board premises and/or board sanctioned events for educational purposes, under the direction of staff and only with parent/guardian permission (GF 066, Network User Application and Agreement). Students may register their PED for the purpose of connecting to the board wireless network. Students are required to adhere to the student “Personal Electronic Device Used with WI-FI Network Student Agreement” and the “Network User Application and Agreement.” Please be advised that the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board will not be responsible for any cost incurred through the use of personal data plans.

PEDs are to be used responsibly and should not interfere with learning; their use must comply with the Catholic Code of Conduct, board policies and procedures. Any personal communications (i.e., phone calls, text messages, etc.) will continue to be directed through the main office. Failure to comply with these guidelines may result in a loss of PED privileges and/or any other consequences deemed necessary by school administration.

The school principal may authorize limited acceptable uses of personal electronic devices during school-sanctioned activities for a specific designated purpose outside of instructional spaces and/or in common areas.

Students are responsible for the safety and security of PEDs at all times and the Board assumes no responsibility for lost, damaged or stolen devices.
