School Food Days

We have been given the go ahead to begin with school food days (eg. pizza sales, lunch program through school cash online, etc.). We will provide more detailed information about how to get started with school food days in the new year.

Fundraising Successes!

Our recent Planet Bean fundraiser was a success! We wanted to express our gratitude to all of the families who helped to raise money for the school towards a new playground. This most recent fundraiser brought $700 into our school. We would also like to thank our parent council for organizing the fundraiser and we look forward to more opportunities like this in the new year! For families who made orders, please note that your coffee will be available for pick up during the last week before the winter break.

Parent Council Meeting – Dec 9

Our December parent council meeting has been moved to Thursday, December 9. If are any new parents who would like to attend the meetings, please email [email protected] to find out how you can join us on the 9th.

Cold Weather Days

The winter is here and so is the cold weather! Please help to make sure your children come to school well prepared for cold weather by having appropriate winter attire. If you need help securing boots, hats, gloves and all other winter clothes, please let us know and we can help to support you.
