Hello Families,

Happy new year! Is it just me or does it seem like we went from Jan 1 to Jan 10 in the blink of an eye? We do hope you had a great holiday season. Our classrooms are buzzing with activity and learning, making the most of renewed energy after a break.

Wishing you secure footing and a smile of sunshine this weekend!

Kristin/Mrs. Atherton

This Coming Week

  • Tue Jan 14 – Gr 10 & 12 Literacy Assessments – we encourage students to get prior rest and do their best!
  • Thu Jan 16 – Gr 10 Numeracy Assessment
  • Fri Jan 17 – Turn in Bear Mtn ski forms

Looking Ahead

  • Jan 24 – Bear Mtn Ski Day – see note that went home this week
  • Jan 30 – Closing of next Scholastic order (no new forms sent home)
  • Jan 31 – Non-instructional day & End of 1st Semester
  • Jan 31 – Closure of our school-wide survey
  • Feb 9 – Family ski day to Powder King (watch for note home)
  • Feb 17 – No school for Family Day

To Do

  • Complete our school-wide culture survey. Watch for an email coming to parent emails on Monday. This lets us know how we are doing and where we can focus improvement efforts. Text a picture of your completion screen to our school text line for your child to receive a small thank you token 🙂

Good to Know

  • Registration for the 25/26 school year will be opening soon! If you have family members or friends who wish to attend, please let us know and we will ensure to add them to our communications (particularly regarding preschool & kindergarten).
  • We have noticed several students are borrowing winter gloves to go outside at recess. A staff member noticed that Red Apple has a 50% off sale this Friday/Saturday so it’s a great time to replace winter items.

Shout Outs

  • To the Hook family for doing some maintenance cleaning at school during the Christmas break.
