Week at a Glance

We sent packages at home last week on the Read-a-Thon. The Read-a-thon is our school's largest fundraiser. This event allows us to get students reading, as well as raise money to support our school councils efforts to bring fun activities into our school. The money generated helps greatly with our year end field trips and many other activities throughout our school. Thank you for your participation to help us meet our School Council goals for this year.

Watch for the “Great Cookie” deal in October with our cafeteria kicking off a weekly promotion of delicious and tasty cookies. Two cookies will be sold for a loonie and pre-orders will be available.

Last Friday, we commemorated National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, formerly known as Orange Shirt Day. Our students had the opportunity to learn more about the Survivors of Residential Schools and those children who did not make it home to their parents.

As a school community, we continue to pledge our efforts in learning more about history and moving forward with reconciliation to be better than those who went before us. Bravo to Mme Laina’s Grade 4 class for leading a beautiful school wide gathering.
