As we head into spring, we anticipate some wet weather. Along with this comes the mud... If you are able to put some extra socks and pants in your child's backpack, that will help in case they get a little muddy or wet!
Green Shirt Day
On April 6, 2018, Canadians were heartbroken to hear the news of the Humboldt Broncos bus crash. Of the 29 passengers, sixteen lost their lives and thirteen will all bear physical and emotional scars for life. On April 7, 2018, Humboldt Broncos defenceman Logan Boulet succumbed to his injuries. His parents, Bernadine and Toby Boulet offered to donate his organs so that six lives could live on. They did so because Logan told his parents he was registering as an organ donor and that he was inspired by his coach and mentor Ric Suggitt. Ric passed on June 27th, 2017 and was also an organ donor and saved 6 lives. April 7th is a day to raise awareness about organ donation.
Some of our classes may be learning about the importance of our organs and organ donation. If you would like to share some information with your children, be sure to check out https://greenshirtday.ca/ as they have great resources for educators and families.
As we will be wearing yellow/gold for our assembly on April 7th, students are encouraged to wear green on Friday, April 8th.

Kindergarten is an exciting milestone in the lives of children and their families. These early experiences set the foundation for lifelong learning and begin to build the skills children need to become confident, resilient and contributing members of the community.
Kindergarten eligibility established in the Education Act and subsequent Early Childhood Services Regulations requires students to turn five by December 31 of the school year they wish to begin Kindergarten. This means children born between Jan. 1 and Dec. 31, 2017, can register for Kindergarten for the 2022/23 school year.
Before registering your child, please review the important documentation you'll need on hand.
Kindergarten registration for the 2022/23 school year is open.
