Friday Flash

Hello Families,

This feels like a strange end to February with such warm weather but I’m loving the beautiful sunsets each morning as we come to school. Our students are working well in their classrooms and continuing to make strides in their learning. Thank you for your continued work to assure they are here whenever possible and catching up at home as needed.

Please see the note below on bus safety around Windrem Elementary.

Wishing you a fabulous weekend!
Mrs. Atherton

This Week

  • Mon Mar 3 – Ensure your hot lunch orders are in before this!

Looking Ahead

  • Thu Mar 13 – Last day for early registration
  • Fri Mar 14 – Ski day to Bear Mtn (weather dependent)
  • Mar 17-28 – Spring break
  • Mon Mar 31 – First day back to school

To Do

  • Ensure you are following safe practices at the bus transfer station outside of Windrem Elementary. Please keep to the 30km/hr speed limit, no u-turns, and watch carefully for children. We have asked the RCMP to monitor the area more and are working on making some changes due to concerns for everyone’s safety.
  • Register for next year!

    We had a good group come to our Kindergarten Open House and we encourage you to solidify your plans. Early registration cost is:
    K-Gr 5: $315
    Gr 6-9: $360
    Gr 10-12: $395

  • After March 13 and before June 30, costs will increase by $50/student.

Good to Know

  • We recognized Pink Shirt Day this week with various focuses on being kind to others and standing up for those around us.
  • We are cheering on our Jr Volleyball teams this weekend and hope that everyone has fun at the tournament in Burnaby.
