Titans' Times

As we kick off a new school year, we’re thrilled to celebrate our vibrant school spirit and community involvement. "Welcome Back Spirit Week" was a huge success, thanks to the enthusiasm of our students, families, and staff. Each theme day was a hit, showcasing everyone’s creativity and fun spirit!

A special thanks to the Legal Lions Club for their incredible support at our Welcome Back BBQ. Their volunteering to cook burgers and hotdogs made the event memorable and provided a great chance for us all to reconnect and strengthen our community bonds.

Our school thrives on your active participation. There are many ways to get involved, from volunteering to joining the School Council and FOLSS. Let’s stay engaged and continue to build a supportive environment for our students!

Blessings for a wonderful week ahead,

Mrs. Lisa Kleparchuk, Principal

Mrs. Sheri Crowston, Vice Principal

Calling anyone age 9 or older! If you have

received your first communion and are

interested in altar serving, we need you! The

more people we get the lower the

commitment, once or twice a month is all that

is needed. Serving is a special way to contribute to Mass by helping Father

with our most sacred Sacrament. Please contact Samantha Beier

Samantha.beier@yahoo.ca and watch the bulletin for our fall training night.

New school routines can be challenging and it is understandable for your child to feel nervous as they adjust to their new routine. One strategy to ease those nerves and help your child feel connected throughout the school day, is by giving them something small such as a message in their lunchbox, to let them know that you are thinking of them throughout the day. A small gesture such as this can make meaningful and positive ripples in your child’s day. Check out the Confidence-Boosting Lunch Box Notes from Big Life Journal below. Notes like this can be a helpful way for you to share words of encouragement with your child, even when you are not around.

We encourage each student to WEAR RED and bring a TOONIE for the Terry Fox Foundation.
