Week at a Glance – April 7 – 10

We hope everyone had a very good weekend in the sunshine! (Finally!) This week the Easter Bunny brought us chocolate for our Easter egg hunt and even though it was pouring rain, the students had a great time! Our Track and Field Season begins this Tuesday for Grades 4-7.

All students have written down their practice times into their planners. We hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend and have bellies full of chocolate!

Parking Reminder

  • This is just a reminder that when you are dropping off students in the neighbourhood, please be mindful that you are not parking in front of people’s driveway.
  • You can drop off and go, however please do not park in someone’s driveway as we have been getting many complaints from our community about this happening and it is blocking houses in.
