Hello Families,

It’s the last week of school! We enjoyed celebrating our Gr 12 graduates this weekend and the weather promises to be beautiful for our last day events. Here are a few things to note:

Mon Jun 26 – Tumbler Ridge trip – All students will meet our PCS bus at the regular bus stop outside of Windrem for drop-off (8:20-8:30) and pick up (2:30-2:45). Please remember water, lunch, and hiking shoes.

Tue Jun 27 – Awards Day – Parents are invited to join us and we encourage all students to be present. Program starts with elementary at 10 am. We will be finished by 12 pm. After lunch we have a house team challenge and prizes to give out.

Wed Jun 28 – Moberly Lake day – Once again, all students wanting transportation will meet our PCS bus outside of Windrem between 8:20 and 8:30 am. Families are welcome to join us at the lake for the day. Please remember a change of clothing, hat/sunscreen, and snack if desired. Lunch is donated for all.

Thu Jun 29 – Half day – Homerooms have parties planned. Dismissal is at noon. Please plan to pick up your child(ren) as there will be no shuttle bus that afternoon.

If you have not yet confirmed your child’s enrolment for next year, please let us know as soon as possible. We are completing our supply orders and classroom arrangements and one or two students can make a difference. We also recommend you pay your fees now (or send us instalments) so September is easier for you! We have room in most of our classrooms, so if there are siblings or friends who may want to attend, let us know 🙂

We’re looking forward to spending some fun time with our students this week and celebrating their achievements!

Mrs. Atherton

We are in the last three weeks of school! We are still learning and completing projects but with the warm weather outside, everyone is looking forward to a break from academics 🙂

We would like to invite you to our student awards ceremony on Tuesday, June 27. We will start at 10 am with the elementary students and continue on to our high school students. We plan to be finished by noon. We love to celebrate the characteristics and accomplishments of our students so would love to have you join us if possible.

We also have several field trips planned. On June 26, we had planned to visit Tumbler Ridge. Our thoughts are with those displaced right now and we’re praying for the rain to arrive! Our final plans for that day are still to be determined. Please watch for permission slips to come home soon.

We are pleased to announce that we have received enough donations to cover the balance owing for Kalpana. Every contribution is appreciated, with a special shout out to a couple of our families who gave substantial donations!! Thank you all for being an important part of Kalpana’s story.

Thank you to everyone who gave a donation to our World Vision child sponsor, Kalpana. We have collected $245.30 of our $516.51 balance, leaving $271.21 still owing. So, if you were wanting to give but haven’t, it’s not too late; e-transfers may be sent to office. With each donation we receive, we become that much closer to our goal. Thank you for making a difference through your compassion and generosity.

Hello Families,

Our garbage pickup day is scheduled for this Thursday, May 11* with a fun activity afterwards. We would love some parent volunteers to help for part of the day so please let us know if you are available (walking or vehicle support). This is a great opportunity to give back to our community and support our school at the same time.

Cheers for a great start to your week!

~Mrs. Atherton

*Our thoughts are with all those evacuated and fighting fires. If the smoky skies continue the day will be rescheduled.

A note that we do have school on May 1. SD 59 does not have school so there will be no bussing to Chetwynd but we will have a shuttle bus from Windrem to PCS and back at the end of the day. Parents of K-Gr 6 students need to pick up children from the Rec Centre after their swimming lessons at 2:35. Have a great weekend!
