Friday Flash

Hello Families,

The weeks roll along and we’re well into the groove of learning. I enjoy walking around school and seeing the various learning activities taking place, from preschool through Gr 12. It’s fun to see new skills being learned and knowledge gained.

As we go into the weekend, I encourage you to spend time in nature enjoying God’s creation with no snow for this last short while. I know at least a few who are wishing the snow upon us and others of us don’t mind if it delays awhile. Whatever your perspective, enjoy your weekend and the fall leaves!

Mrs. Atherton

Verse of the Week

Colossians 3:12-14

"Since God chose you to be the holy people he loves, you must clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Make allowance for each other’s faults, and forgive anyone who offends you. Remember, the Lord forgave you, so you must forgive others. Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony."
