Dear Parents,
The students have been busy getting ready for our school Grand Opening. Each family may sign up for two tickets to attend our dress rehearsal on Thursday or the Grand Opening on Friday.  Both are to be held at 1 p.m. Please read the letter sent to all parents from Mr. Dyck...
Dear Parents/Guardians:
As you know our School’s Grand Opening Ceremony will be held next Friday, February 10th at 1:00 pm.  This is a great opportunity for the CBE and the provincial government to acknowledge the importance of public education.  Through a variety of ways, our students will be expressing their appreciation for all the many hardworking people required to build our school.  Additional highlights include a few words from an Elder and several government officials, both provincial and civic, who will be present to share their support.  We are especially fortunate to have Ken Taylor’s wife, Patricia, join us to share some words and share in our celebration as well.
As our limited space will not allow for a general attendance we will have tickets available on-line for both the official ceremony and at the dress rehearsal on Thursday, February 9th at 1:00 pm as well.
Each person attending the evening performance needs to have a ticket. This includes all children who require a seat. Please be aware that due to limited space, strollers are not allowed in the gym.

Dear Parents, We had a great start to our day with a presentation by HOJE.  The talented singers sang and had the audience captivated with songs from the top 40 music charts. Feel free to ask your child about the performance tonight. The students are busy preparing and practising for our grade two learning celebration on June 2 at 8:30 a.m.  Please book some time off if you can to join the grade two’s on that day. Important Information: Practise home reading daily. Please return all field trip forms as soon as possible if you haven’t already done so.   Our class now has enough volunteers for the Aboriginal Center on May 29 but is in need for 2 parents to come with us to the Ed Center. Please gather any items listed in the email sent home regarding our Learning Commons. Have a wonderful evening! Sincerely, Mrs. Sayani

Dear Parents, Your child learned how to do his or her home journal through an email today. They were so excited about it!  Please keep in mind that they are just beginning to use a keyboard and are learning.  There are some great websites for you to use at home for them to practise their keyboarding skills.  Dance Mat Typing is one that you can try at home. You are welcome to send an email back to your child about their learning at school. www.dancemattypingguide.com/dance-mat-typing-level-1/stage-1/ We are going to begin to learn about Boats and Buoyancy on Monday. Practise home reading daily. Our two field trips have been approved.  We will be going to the Aboriginal Centre on May 29 and the Education Centre on June 8.  In order for the trips to happen, we will need volunteers. Please look for notices regarding these two field trips in the upcoming weeks. Sincerely, Mrs. Sayani
