Bus Changes

Hello Families,
A quick note to let you know that Standard Bus will be transporting our students to/from school tomorrow and likely next week. We may also need to make some adjustments to our lake day plans. We will let you know more details as soon as possible.

Moberly Lake Day

As many of you know, Monday June 27 is our day at the lake. The PCS Parent Committee are providing snacks and deserts on that day. Students still need to have a sack lunch on that day, but PAC will be providing fruit, chips and deserts to students who attend.

We are looking for some parent volunteers to provide deserts on the 27th. If you are able please contact Melissa McAfee.

Thanks in advance,

PCS Parent Committie

MOVE out those BOTTLES UPDATE

As many of you know May was “MOVE out those BOTTLES month!!”

To date we have raised just a little over $210!! A huge thank you to all who have been out collecting up to this point.

Even though May is over, we are still accepting donations from collected bottles, o continue to round up your recyclables that will fetch a dollar, and round up your extended family and neighbour’s recyclables (with their permission of course) …. and take those BOTTLES down to the Bottle Depot for a refund. Then, (please), bring that refund out to the school. ☺ 

Thanks to Mrs. Landon for updating the thermometer! The “pop can” thermometer is just outside of Mrs. B’s door, so we can watch our progress to meet our goal! When you bring in your receipts from the bottle depot, please give them to Mrs. Landon or Mrs. Siller. 

Winners will be announced soon, and don’s forget that the top COLLECTOR will win a prize!  

Happy Bottle Collecting 

Lost & Found & New Teacher

Hello Families,
With the warm weather we went through our Lost and Found bin. Attached are pictures of items not yet claimed by students. Please let us know if you recognize anything.
We would also like to extend our warm welcome to Candice Jones who will be joining our teaching staff next school year. She is passionate about young people, the outdoors, and the arts and we are looking forward to having her expertise at our school. She came for a visit this last weekend to learn a bit more about our school and community. Miss Jones will be teaching our Gr 5/6 homeroom, as well as our French classes and Visual Arts. We are grateful for all the time and passion Mr. Scalliet has dedicated to our students and will miss him as he moves to another school. We wish him all the best in his next steps!
Enjoy the lovely weather this week!
Mrs. Atherton

Garbage Pickup Tomorrow (Thur)

Just a reminder that we will be spending part of tomorrow cleaning up our neighborhood. We are looking forward to serving our community. So far the weather suggests a sweater, sunscreen, water (and potentially a snack) are all good items to bring. Good walking shoes and rubber boots are also needed. It’s always a great feeling to see things looking better when we are done!
