Swimming

If you have not yet returned your swimming field trip permission slips please do so ASAP! Be sure to indicate if you will be joining us on the field trip. A Criminal Record Check MUST BE completed in order to come to the pool.

We will be leaving at 9:05 sharp, so please be on time, and we will be returning to school about 11:30. Students need to bring swimsuits, towels, and life jackets (if needed). If students come to school already dressed in their swimsuit, please make sure the necessary clothes are packed to change into after swimming.

Pancake Lunch 

On Thursday, March 17th, students do not need to bring a lunch. I will be making green pancakes for the students to enjoy as it is St. Patrick’s Day. If your student does not want to participate they can just bring a lunch that day.

Donut Fundraiser

The Elementary department is doing $2 donut fundraiser for the school in Guatemala. On Friday, March 18, students can bring $2 to their teacher and at lunch they will receive a glazed donut from Safeway bakery. We have ordered enough for each student to have one donut if they wish.

Today has been a VERY exciting day. We had 5 chicks hatch, and they are soooo cute! This afternoon we had the pleasure of attending Math Mayhem in the chapel. The grade 10 and 11 students did a fantastic job of creating math games the students could play. The students LOVED it. They will be coming home with a bag of candy that they won playing the games.

3 of our chicks have hatched, one more on the way. 2 hatched during the night and the students were lucky enough to see one come out of the egg his morning. They are all very excited!

Our chicks are starting to hatch! We have our first chick to pip. This means they have made a first crack in the egg with their egg tooth. It can take up to 24 hours for the chick to hatch after they have pipped so we have a little while to wait yet, but its very exciting!!

On Thursday, March 17th, students do not need to bring a lunch. I will be making green pancakes for the students to enjoy. If your student does not want to participate they can just bring a lunch that day.

Wednesday/Thursday March 9th/10th: Eggs will be hatching

Friday March 11th: Stuffy Friday and Knight Day

Thursday March 17th: wear green, swimming field trip, pancake lunch

Friday March 18th: Donut Fundraiser bring $2, last day of school before Spring Break!!

The Elementary department is doing a $2 donut fundraiser to help raise money for the school in Guatemala. On Friday, March 18th, students can bring $2 to their teacher and at lunch they will receive a glazed donut from the Safeway bakery. We have ordered enough donuts for the students to each purchase one donut if the wish. Thank you for supporting this important cause.

The day for class pictures is now on Monday, March 7th. The reason for the change is that the pictures will be taken outside and the weather is supposed to still be nice on Monday but calls for rain on Tuesday. Please ensure that your student is in proper uniform. Full dress uniform is not a requirement.
