Dear Parents/Guardians,
Although the week was short, it overflowed with amazing learning activities. Grade ½ students enjoyed food with Mathematics.
We are excited to share that in addition to the regular curriculum, students can participate in lunch clubs to broaden their horizons. Ms. Burger organizes Intramurals for all students every Tuesday, offering yoga sessions for February and March. Ms. Baker also conducts a choir club for Division 2 students every Wednesday. We encourage you to discuss these opportunities with your child, as they provide a wonderful avenue for learning, fun with peers, and forging connections outside of their regular classrooms.
As the Student Learning Conferences draw near, we are also excited to hold our Book Fair during the same timeframe. Please refer to the attached poster for more information. Should you have any inquiries regarding the book fair, feel free to reach out to Ms. Danielle.

School Council Message:
Spirit Wear - Second Life
Do you have School Spirit Wear kicking around the house that doesn’t fit anymore? We’d love to give it a new home! We are starting a recycling program for School Spirit wear. If you have Spirit Wear collecting dust in your house, please bring it to the school and drop it in the bin at the front door. We are going to give it a second life! We will collect, wash & sort the under-loved Spirit Wear and match it with a new owner.
We will be collecting until March 21 and expect to deliver it to the new owners after Spring Break.
If you are interested in signing up to receive Second Life Spirit Wear, submit the information in this form: Spirit Wear Sign Up
