Administration Message Administration Message

Greetings SJPII Families,

In this week’s Gospel, Matthew 22:34–40, Jesus reminds us of the two greatest commandments: to love God with all our heart, soul, and mind, and to love our neighbour as ourselves.


As we continue to live out our school theme, Rooted. United. Sent., this Gospel reminds us that love is at the heart of everything we do. When we are rooted in Christ’s love, we are called to treat others with kindness, respect, patience, and compassion. These small, everyday choices help us build a school community where everyone feels welcomed, valued, and supported.


As we move through the school year, we encourage our students to reflect on how they can put these commandments into action, in the classroom, on the playground, and in their relationships with others. Together, we can continue to grow as a faith-filled community that reflects Christ’s love in all that we do.


Upcoming Parent-Teacher Conferences

We look forward to connecting with families during our upcoming parent-teacher conferences. These conversations are an important opportunity to celebrate student successes, discuss learning and growth, and work together to support each child’s continued progress. Strong partnerships between home and school help ensure that our students feel encouraged and supported in their learning journey.


Thank you for your continued partnership and for the many ways you support our JPII community. May we continue to be rooted in Christ’s love, united in our faith, and sent forth to make a positive difference in the lives of those around us.


Have a wonderful weekend, and God bless!

Mrs. Morgan & Mrs. Johnson
