Thanks to all the parents who came out to our School Council meeting last Tuesday. It is a great place to learn about the happenings in the school, and to give input into programs and events. Mark your calendars for our annual Winterfest Celebration happening on Saturday, December 14th from 10am to 2pm. There are many ways to help out and get involved. Follow the School Council Instagram and Facebook pages to learn more. Mark your calendars…the next full council meeting is January 14, 2024 in the library.

This week we will be acknowledging Treaties Recognition Week. We will learn about treaties in general and the ones that cover the area of Dufferin County. There will be morning announcements and activities from our Indigenous Lead to support this work.
