Tomorrow, we will begin our in-school Purdy’s chocolate bar fundraiser to ‘Raise Funds to Raise a Roof’ for our new Outdoor Learning Space.  Milk chocolate bars, white chocolate smileys, and milk chocolate smileys are $2.00 each and will be available for purchase in two ways:  at the Office after school and in the classroom right before Recess on Fridays.

If your child has misplaced their agenda, there are more available at the Office for $5.00 each.

We have extra stock of House Shirts in the Office and are offering them up for sale for the bargain price of $5.  If you are interested in purchasing one of these shirts, please contact the Office.

Enjoy your sunny Thursday!

Here are the Minutes from the latest PAC meeting –>  PAC Meeting Minutes – March 11, 2021

2021-2022 REGISTRATION

If you would like to register your child to attend school in September, 2021, you will be able to register either online or in person at your catchment school.  Proper documentation is required at the time of registration.  Your child’s registration will not be processed without the required documentation.  Kindergarten aged children must be five years old by December 31, 2021.

Due to COVID-19 health and safety guidelines, the process for registration and collecting documents may be different than in the past. For information and instructions on how to register, please click here —> Student Registration Letter 2021 and for the Student Registration Form click here —> Student Registration Form_20212022

Although your child’s Care Card is not a required document, it is an important piece of information for the school to have.  Please make sure you have indicated any medical concerns or information that the school should be aware of (i.e. asthma, allergies, etc.).  If you have copies of any medical documents or diagnostic reports for learning or physical needs, please also have a copy of the original (a copy can be made at the school).  Please also have a copy of any Court Orders regarding custody so the school can have a copy on file.
