Today was Orange Shirt Day and we learned a bit about the residential schools in Canada. We explored how peace can be found in acceptance and reconciliation. Here we are below! Our Fun-Snack (Kernels Popcorn) is on Tuesday!

Thank you to all of the families who were able to attend our Open House/ Meet the Teacher evening last night. And thanks to the Council for providing the teachers with dinner, it was lovely!
We participated in our first successful fire drill for the school year; despite the awful weather! Thanks for dressing your children appropriately! The students enjoyed the first Peace Assembly (put on by Grade 1/2 Simmons & Cox) in the gym. It was very entertaining!
Fun Lunch/Snack forms went home today. There is no school for students on Friday September 22nd. ***We will be going on our (postponed) whole school Peace Walk on Monday. Please dress for the weather! Have a nice weekend! Today, we began making our Pinwheels for Peace and will finish them tomorrow before the assembly.
Tomorrow is a half day and we finish at 12:05pm. Conferences begin at 1:30pm and end at 7:00pm. Please dress for the weather as we will be going on a short Peace Walk around our school. Thank you again for avoiding the playground construction zone. We appreciate your patience. The bottle drive truck will be at the school for conferences tomorrow. ![]() The students have homework tonight. Please return your red folder everyday. The school's Choir forms went home today. If your child wishes to participate, please return the form by Tuesday Sept. 26th, thanks! Thursday is a half-day for students! School finishes at 12:05. ***A big thank you to parents and children for walking around the construction of the new playground. We appreciate your patience and understanding! Your children looked gorgeous today for photos and we had ours taken before snack so no one had food on their face (or in the their hair!) Ha! Ha! They were all seriously good-looking! ![]() Our Homework Program began today and will run from Monday thru Thursday. Please return the red duotang to school everyday, Thanks for your support with this activity! And now a note from Mrs. Kinsman: Parents - The Tuscany Way walkway entrance to the school is going to be very busy over the next couple of weeks with trucks hauling equipment, etc. onto the playground site. For safety, we are asking all families to please not use the Tuscany Way walkway entrance. We will be keeping all students off the hill and would ask parents to please walk students down Tuscany Drive to the steps where the children can access the school yard via the bottom of the hill until further notice.This is a major inconvenience but the good news is the playground is almost here!!Thank you! Mrs. Kinsman Just a few reminders for families as our new school year is now fully launched.
