Spirit was alive this afternoon at our first Spirit Assembly of the school year. Thanks to Triple S for organizing and running the assembly. We highlighted our Spencer value of “Belonging”, celebrated all the things that happened in September, looked ahead to opportunities for October and had a little fun. We look forward to this being a regular monthly occurrence.
One of the teams that we celebrated was our Cross Country team who participated at the County Meet on Thursday. Thank you to Mrs. Endeman, Ms. McLellan and Mrs. Kirby for your work with the team this year.
Food Days are back! School Council is hosting a variety of school days this year with the profits going back to students to support enriched experiences for all. Pizza Days, Pita Pit and Boston Pizza orders are on line at schoolcashonline.com . The deadline for ordering is October 14.
As you are aware, the Ministry of Education is looking at parking around childcare centres. The board has been asked to look at all schools with before and after school programs and where they are in relation to parking lots. The board has looked at this and have determined that our parking lot is closed to all people, with the exception of our staff during the school day. Parents can still use the bus loop for quick pick ups and drop offs throughout the day (not at bus times.) We would ask that parents accessing the YMCA, park in the half of the parking lot closest to the road (to the left of the front doors when looking at them.) We are waiting to hear if there will be any additional measures in the coming months.
