We’re only a few weeks away from February, which is Black History Month. Black History Month is a time when people across Canada learn about and honour the history, achievements, and contributions of Black Canadians and their communities. Throughout the month, we will celebrate Black excellence, learn from history, and reflect on how we can continue to act, today and into the future. We’ll start with a look at the Canadian perspective, then throughout February we’ll dig into the work being done in the UGDSB.

Dear Families,

We apologize for the confusion regarding the skating fee that was previously communicated. The price shared was incorrect.

Any payments that have already been made will be refunded through School Cash Online in the coming days. Please note that there is no longer a fee for skating.

We do ask that you continue to return the blue permission forms to the school so students may participate.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation. We appreciate your support and look forward to a fun skating experience for our students.

Sincerely,
Tracy Matthews
