Dear Parents & Guardians,


Tomorrow we are having a whole school drumming  assembly to celebrate this week's

drumming workshop. Our grade sixers will practice their piece one last time with our

musician in residence.


Upcoming events all on Tuesday, June 24th

  • Report Cards will go live on Powerschool for you to see
  • Last day of class - We dismiss at 2:40 as usual.
  • Final Pillars of Care Assembly
For this final assembly everybody is invited to attend. 
I will send home a note to the parents of the 5 winners for our class tomorrow.



Please send a backpack or tote bag to school tomorrow or before the last day of school.

We are doing a final desk clean and I am sending everything home.


On Monday, students are allowed to bring a board/ card game to school. 

We will be having a game day where students can teach each other board or card games.

Games incorporate many valuable skills related to the program of studies:

- reading

- math

- strategy

- social studies context (e.g. Settlers of Catan - resource management)
