Hoyne Happenings
Hello Families,
We ended last week strong at Pembroke. Students and staff participated in our very first Pride Packs of the year. Pride Packs are mixed grade level groups that focus on building community and common understanding of things like Respect, Integrity, Positive Attitude and more. At our first Pride Pack students played a get to know you game and started to brainstorm names for their Pride Pack. It was great to see all of the amazing student leaders who helped make this a success.
This week at Pembroke students will continue to dive deep into learning. On Wednesday, we will celebrate Walk, Bike, and Roll to school, details are below. We hope to see many of you there! Also, on the 9th we have our flu shot clinic and our New Family Dinner. I'm looking forward to talking more with our new families and enjoying dinner together. We will end the week on Friday with our Fun Run Awards assembly!
Have a great week!
