Friendly Reminders
Bus Safety
Please remind your children to be safe on the bus. They should remain seated, use quiet voices, and only ride their assigned bus. They may have an assigned seat because of concerning behaviour, and if they cannot follow bus expectations, they may not be permitted to ride the bus,
Outdoor Play
The weather is changing, but we still play outside. Please make sure that your child comes to school ready to go outside each day. This includes a jacket, mittens, hat, and appropriate footwear.
Going Digital!
We sent an email to families to start the process of going digital with our school forms. There is a permission slip for general activities online right now. You must create a Rycor account to access it and need your child's Student ID. If you require any assistance with this, please contact your child's classroom teacher so they can share the link with you to explain how to set it up. Iryna, our ANC contact, also has this information.
Communication
We have an amazing, supportive school community, and we are very grateful for the support we receive from our families. Unfotunately, there are times when things may take longer than expected, or the outcome is different than hoped for.Please be respectful in communication with staff; disresepct will not be tolerated.
In addition, it is very important to make sure that the school has updated contact information. In an emergency situation we need to be able to contact you. Please make sure that the school has a working phone number for someone connected to your child.
