Elmdale Early Years School

I would like to thank all our Elmdale families for attending the student led conferences this past month. Your children were very excited to show off their learning to you. We look forward to having you visit again during our Family Celebration of Learning during the afternoon of February 23rd.

Our first Bucket Filling group had the opportunity to travel to Providence College to participate in a number of games in their gym. Their student athletes planned an excellent afternoon for our students. It was a very quiet ride home on the bus as all the students were exhausted.

I want to take a moment and wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. On behalf of our staff at Elmdale Early Years School, we thank you for your partnership and we look forward to partnering with you again in the new year!

Take care,

Mr. Colin Campbell

Some suggested donation items are rice, canned food, cereal, pasta, juice, baby food, syrup, peanut butter, soup, crackers, and pancake mix.

Thank you to Mrs. Reimer who has directed the Home Reading Video series this year. Further thanks goes out to all the families that have volunteered their time as live actors in these videos. If you are interested in participating in these video series, please email Mrs. Reimer at pamreimer@hsd.ca

Our Phy-ed Teacher Mr. Thiessen would like to thank all the volunteers that came out to tie skates and spend time with our students on the ice. Without you, this fun activity would be difficult to organize and run.
