Monday Sept 20 is our first Pro-D day of the year which means it will be a Non-Instructional day for our students. Staff learning will focus Numeracy, No Contact PE Games, and Technology in the morning before breaking out to participate in a variety of district offered Pro-d sessions in the afternoon.

Our grade 5 student leaders will begin crossing guard duty this week. Please be extra careful when dropping-off in the morning and be sure to wait until all crossing guards have returned safely to the sidewalk before entering the intersection.

Orange Shirt Day will be on Wednesday, September 30th. Orange Shirt Day grew out of Phyllis’ story of having her shiny new orange shirt taken away on her first day of school at a residential school. It has become an opportunity for First Nations, local governments, schools and communities to come together in the spirit of reconciliation.

There will be a paper newsletter coming home later this week with information about online forms, school fees and other important events. We will also be sending a copy home by email when it is ready.

Our first PAC meeting of the school year will be on Monday Sept 28 @ 7:00pm. As the meeting will take place online through Microsoft Teams, please watch for an email with instructions on how to log in using your child's SD83 email address and password. All parents are welcome to attend!
