Hello Families,

Here are a few quick reminders for this week:

Monday: Field & Fire Truck Day – Students will be playing a variety of games and then be getting wet so an extra change of clothes is a great idea!

Tuesday: Awards at 10 am (starting with the youngest) followed by class parties. We invite parents to join us for awards. The whole program typically takes about 1.5 hours. There will be regular bussing for the day.

Wednesday: Lake Day at Moberly. There will be bussing to/from Windrem to Moberly but we encourage families to join and drive their students. We ask that students wear white if possible for a colour game. Bus will be back at Windrem for 12:30 pm.

We are looking forward to a fun and rewarding week!

Hello families,

We apologize for the short notice, but the Mom’s Pantry order is arriving shortly.

If possible, please pick up your order from PCS between 4:00 and 5:00 PM today. If that time does not work for you, you are welcome to pick it up tomorrow instead.

Any frozen items will be stored in the freezer overnight; however, our freezer space is limited, so we would appreciate it if you could pick up your order as soon as possible.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Hello Families,

Time is speeding by quickly with just one more full week of school remaining! Where has the year gone? Thankfully, we have all worked hard and students are showing progress. To celebrate this progress, you are invited to our awards ceremony for Kindergarten through Grade 12 students at 10 am on Tuesday June 23.

Enjoy the sunshine after the much needed rain!
Mrs. Atherton

Good to Know

• Our K-Gr 12 awards ceremony starts at 10 am. The full event will take about an hour and a half. We start with the youngest classes, then awards across the whole school, and then the upper grade awards. We love having family members present if you’re able to attend.
• Lake Day is our last day of school. We will transport the students from the bus stop to the lake in the morning and then will be done at the lake at noon. We encourage you to pick up your child at the lake if possible and join us for the morning or awhile. There will be some transportation back to town, leaving the lake just after noon.
• Northern Lights College is hosting a series of local Summer Youth Camps designed specifically for youth going into grades 8 to 12 in the fall to explore rewarding, high-demand careers in areas like healthcare and the skilled trades. Please see this link or the attachment for more details about the Chetwynd camps.

Shout Outs

• To all our students and adult volunteers who came out for Highway Clean-up Day! We were done in record time and made our community (and our drive to school) look much better.
• To our graduates for all completing their capstone presentations and some awesome ones at that!

Verse of the Week – Philippians 1:6

"And I am certain that God, who began the good work within you, will continue his work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns."

This verse reminds us that what is begun in us will be completed.

Grade 7-12 will have hot lunch on their regular date, Wednesday, June 17.

Thank you,
Mrs. B

Re: K-6
Hello Parents and Guardian,
Because of the sack lunch your children are required to bring for the field trip on Wednesday, June 17,
hot lunch will be made and served to them on Thursday, June 18th.

Thank you for taking note of this change.

Mrs. B

It is important to note our activities after the service project:
– Soak a Senior (bring funds)
– Choice of activities, one of which is water games so bringing a change of clothes would be appropriate
– Treat provided by the Student Association

My apologies for the additional email.

Hi Families,

Just a reminder about our service day tomorrow where we will be picking up garbage along the highway between our school and town. Through this we build teamwork and enjoy being part of a group effort to make a significant difference in beautifying our community.

It looks like it will be a warm day. Please ensure your child has:
– Hat
– Sunscreen (we will have some available for re-applications)
– Good footwear
– Water bottle (to be carried if possible, or put in a support vehicle)
– Optional: work type gloves

We will have vests, garbage bags, and disposable gloves. Students will be working in teams, along with an adult, and together, our section of highway will be looking much better by tomorrow afternoon!

Thank you for your support of this initiative of learning and giving back.

Warmly,
Mrs. Atherton

Hello Families,

The energy in our building is ramping up as the warm weather continues. We are enjoying spring and taking activities outside when possible. We encourage you and your children to enjoy the outdoors as well during this lovely weather!

Have a great weekend!
Mrs. Atherton

This Coming Week

• Thu May 28 – Garbage pick-up & Soak a Senior
• Mon Jun 1 – No School for Non-Instructional Day

Upcoming Events

• June 2 – Scholastic orders due
• June 19 – Graduation
• June 23 – Awards (morning) & Class parties
• June 24 – Lake Day & Last day of school

Good to Know

• Garbage pickup is Thursday and we love to have parent/volunteer assistance. We participate in garbage pickup because caring for our community is part of who we are. When students help clean our shared spaces, they learn responsibility, teamwork, and respect for God’s creation. Small actions make a big difference, and we’re proud to do our part. Let one of our staff know if you’re able to help. Many hands make light work!
• Plans are in the works for end of the year field trips. Please watch for permission slips coming home.
• We are interviewing for Education Assistants and Janitorial support for next year. Please let us know if you would like to be considered.

Shout Outs

• To Albert Nichols for assisting with time and equipment to deal with our monetary recycling.
• To Norm Bunker for assisting with our garbage.
• To our regular volunteers who come in to read, cook, or help in other ways around the school.

Verse of the Week – Isaiah 26:3-4

"You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you, all whose thoughts are fixed on you! Trust in the Lord always, for the Lord God is the eternal Rock."

This verse reminds us that peace comes from trusting deeply.

Hi Families,

It’s been a busy week of activities and we are grateful for a long weekend! We hope you enjoy the extra day this weekend. We look forward to seeing everyone back on Tuesday!

Mrs. Atherton
