Thank you once again to our many volunteers and to all those who could join us for the volunteer tea last Wednesday. Our students loved sharing their songs and music with you. We hope you feel appreciated and valued as much as we feel for all of you.

Our Grade 6 celebration will be on June 22 at 1:30pm. All Grade 6 families are welcome to attend this farewell. This is a change in dates…please note the change.

From the Library

We have a large number of overdue books out in the community. We are asking all families to please take a look around your homes for any books from the school library. Mrs. Jackson, our Library Assistant, will be sending out invoices to those students whose books have been outstandingly overdue.

All books and fees will need to be returned by June 16 as we start to do inventory for the end of the year.

We will be selling freezies at recess on Fridays to support the Grade 6 Farewell Celebration. The cost will be $2.00 each for a large freezie. Please support the Grade 6’s if you are able. Thank you to those who have already donated freezies for this event. Donations of large freezies can be dropped off at the office and are greatly appreciated. Thank you to those who have already brought some in. We are grateful for the volunteers who are coming to help.

Weekly Mantra

I Am Grateful (SEL Competency: Social Awareness)

It is important to be thankful for everything that happens in your life because every experience that we have is taking us to new places. Life is a gift, and gratitude helps us to appreciate this gift and to fill us with joy. It voices our joy and it also creates joy.
