O God of Love, We thank you for what you have given us to enjoy;

For healthy minds and bodies, for love, for family, for friendship;

For every gift of happiness.

We praise you for those who help us by their example and encouragement;

Especially those who have given their lives to the cause

of justice and freedom.

Help us, for whom their efforts were given, to make their sacrifice

worthwhile by the way we live our lives in loving others.

May we always strive to follow your example and work

towards creating a peaceful world.

Help us have peace through full reconciliation and cooperation with

God's will for us and all those with whom we live.

We ask this in Jesus' name,

Amen.

November is a month of transition and change. The clocks fall back, the leaves have mostly fallen, and we begin to prepare for the colder days ahead. It’s a time of reflection, gratitude, and anticipation.

October was filled with meaningful opportunities to live out our school motto: “Enter to Learn, Prepare to Serve.” The virtue of empathy was beautifully demonstrated through our Winter Clothing Drive. It was heartwarming to see our school entrance overflowing with boxes of donated items — a true testament to the generosity and compassion of our community.

Our students continue to thrive academically, socially, and spiritually. They’ve settled into their routines, and progress reports will soon be sent home. We are incredibly proud of our student athletes who represented St. Veronica so well at the cross-country meet and both the girls' and boys' junior volleyball teams. Their dedication and sportsmanship were inspiring. Halloween was another highlight, with vibrant school spirit on full display. Thank you to our Catholic School Council and all parent volunteers for making it such a fun and memorable day!

As we enter November, we are reminded of the importance of remembrance. We reflect on the significance of All Saints Day, All Souls Day, and Remembrance Day — moments that call us to honor those who have gone before us and to celebrate the strength of our faith.

This month’s virtue is conscience. We are called to do what is right, guided by prayer and reflection. We encourage our students to have the courage to stand up for the values they are taught at home and at school, and to be peacemakers in their classrooms and communities.

On behalf of the staff of St. Veronica Catholic School, thank you for your continued support. As we journey together through this season of remembrance and reflection, may we continue to grow in faith, peace, service, and love.

Take care.

N. Laporte

Principal

"But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith."

Galatians 5:22

During the month of November, we focus on the virtue of conscience.

God helps us to choose to be good people.

A person of conscience...

• chooses to do the right thing, even when it is hard
• takes time to think and pray before making decisions
• knows that their actions and decisions affect all those around them
• thinks of others before themselves

Conscience is the voice of God within us. As you develop your conscience, you will learn to make decisions that encourage and support truly loving relationships. Our conscience reminds us how to act towards other people and how to be a good friend. Sometimes it is hard for us to do the right thing, but we must always remember that the right thing to do is not always the easy thing to do.

Let us now pray...for the grace and strength to be people of conscience - people who know the good and decent way to act, and then choose to act that way. Amen.

I am a believer!

• I believe that God is an awesome God!
• I believe and have faith in God
• I believe that God is with us always
• I believe that we can talk to God anytime and anywhere, through prayer
• I believe in the stories of the Bible
• I believe in the stories of Jesus' life, death and resurrection
• I believe in the Church community, celebrating mass, and the seven sacraments
• I believe in forgiveness

Because I am a believer, I will live my life like Jesus.

November is a month of remembrance of All Saints, All Souls, veterans and service men and women. We would like to invite our St. Veronica families and staff to include the names of their loved ones that have gone before us, in our Book of Remembrance. We will display our book in the foyer of our school and we will keep our loved ones in our prayers as a school community.

For the past 25 years, the Rosary Apostolate has been creating a 'positive experience of prayer' which students enjoy and remember for years to come. Students never find praying the rosary boring because the goal of the Rosary Apostolate is to make 'praying the rosary' a truly 'inspiring' and interesting experience for students. They are provided time to reflect and ponder at every decade of the rosary. We are fortunate to have the Rosary Apostolate visiting St. Veronica once a month.

On November 11, Canadians all across the country pause in a silent moment of remembrance of the men and women who served our country during wartime. We honour those who fought for Canada in the First World War, the Second World War, and the Korean War. Everybody stands in silence as they remember the more than 100,000 brave Canadians who were killed. They gave their lives and their future so that we may live in peace. World War One Armistice was signed on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month. That is why November 11th is called Remembrance Day.

Our school will pay tribute to those who gave their lives for freedom on Tuesday, November 11 at our school beginning at 10:45 am. Thank you to Mrs. Strachan and Mme Bozzo for preparing students for this liturgy. Poppy stickers will be distributed to all students and we will be making a donation to the Veterans' Association.

We welcome you to join us for this occasion.

Many of our students volunteer to take on leadership roles in areas such as kindergarten helpers, breakfast/snack helpers, school clubs and in our Wellness Committee. We are very proud of our students. They willingly offer their time and talents to benefit others. We look forward to continue working together to make everyone feel welcomed, accepted, cared for and safe.

We would like to thank all of our parents/guardians for their cooperation with regards to our Kiss and Ride program. Please be reminded that safety must be the primary concerns for all trying to drive into the school lot. We appreciate everyone's cooperation, support, patience and understanding as we continue to strive to make our Kiss and Ride program a safe and efficient process.

We thank all drivers who move right up to the top of the kiss and ride lane. Please do not leave your vehicle unattended in the kiss and ride lane (unless you are dropping off a kindergarten student).

Daily attendance and punctuality are important. Thank you to all parents/guardians who have been using the Safe Arrival website and/or app when your child is absent.

Please continue to use the Safe Arrival School Messenger program to report absences and/or lates.

The safety of all children is a primary concern. As you are aware, we do have a buzzer entry system. We ask that all visitors, including parents/guardians come to the office through the front door (using the buzzer). In doing so, we will be able to welcome you, and ask you to sign in.

Please be aware that in the morning at 8:30 am, we do have our morning opening exercises which include O Canada and prayer. We may not be able to get the buzzer right away at this time. We thank you for your cooperation in this very important protocol.

The days are getting colder and pretty soon winter will arrive. It is important for students to come prepared to participate in all activities, including outdoor recess. We ask that students dress appropriately for colder weather by having coats, hats, scarves, boots and mittens or gloves.

For health and safety, we ask that all students have indoor shoes. Please note that in the event of an emergency evacuation, students will not have the opportunity to put boots on. Thank you for your support in this matter.

During the winter season, parents/guardians are often concerned as to how we determine when children will or will not be allowed outside for recess. On extremely cold days, we obtain information from Environment Canada and follow Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board's policy.

Board policy states the amount of time outdoors should be reduced for children (grade 8 and under) when the temperature is minus 20 degrees Celsius or colder. When the temperature or equivalent wind chill temperature is minus 25 degrees Celsius or lower children shall be kept indoors.

With the exceptions of these occasions, all children will go out for recess and the lunch break. We remind all students to dress appropriately for the weather.

STOPR (Student Transportation of Peel Region) provides bus transportation for our students. The STOPR website is www.stopr.ca. This website provides access to up to date information regarding delayed buses and bus cancellations.

Thank you to all parents/guardians who completed the school board process for the Courtesy Seat Bus Request. Courtesy seat requests have been processed. Parents are reminded that courtesy seats are not guaranteed for the year and they may be rescinded at any time as new situations or enrollments arise. Please remember that this process must be conducted annually for students not normally eligible to ride the bus.

Please see the attached newsletter from STOPR regarding important information about riding the bus in winter.

Please note: we belong to Zone 1.

St. Veronica is an allergen aware school. We have a number of students in our school who have severe allergic life-threatening reactions to peanut butter, peanut oils, any peanut/nut by-products and dairy products. As in the past, we are asking you to not put any child at risk, therefore, requesting that peanuts, peanut butter, peanut oils, any peanut/nut by-products not be brought into the school. We ask that you read the labels of all food items sent to school. A letter was sent home in September which addressed this issue for each particular class.

We are asking parents not to send food items to school when celebrating your child's birthday and consider an alternative such as pencils, stickers, etc. We thank you for your continued understanding.

If you have not already done so, please return the Medical Authorization forms sent home. Your child’s medication should be stored either in a fanny pack around their waist, or in the school office health room so that it can be accessed quickly should a medical emergency arise.

Each year, the form requires a Doctor or Health Practitioner to complete and sign it, as well as the parent.

If you child is diagnosed with a new condition or the present condition requires different medication or prescription, kindly contact our office to obtain the appropriate forms.

Thank you for your cooperation in helping our students stay safe and well.

Even when it appears to be insignificant, we try to inform parents/guardians of all reported head injuries at school. We do this in recognition of the potential danger of any injury involving the head area. Our intent is not to alarm you, but to keep you informed. Please remind your child to let a staff member know if they bump their head or if they get hurt at school.

It is flu season and we want to make sure students stay as healthy as possible this year. Influenza (flu) spreads easily from one person to another and Peel Public Health has some tips to help reduce the risk of catching the flu and spreading it:

• Get your annual flu shot: the flu shot is your best defense against the flu. There are many locations across Peel where you can get your flu shot (doctor office, walk-in clinic, pharmacy, flu shot clinics)
• Keep children home when they are sick: if your child develops flu-like signs and symptoms (fever, cough, sore throat, body aches, headache, chills or fatigue), keep them home from school. Contact your health care provider if symptoms are severe.
• Practice good hygiene: help your child get into the habit of covering their nose and mouth with a tissue when they cough or sneeze and throw tissues in the garbage. Cough or sneeze into a sleeve or elbow, if they don't have a tissue. They should also avoid touching their eyes, nose or mouth. This is how germs are spread.
• Wash your hands: encourage your child to wash their hands often with soap and water or use hand sanitizer, especially after they cough or sneeze.

For more information, please visit Peel Public Health's website.

Did you know?

Too much screen time increases your child’s risk of becoming:

• Sleep-deprived.
• Less school-ready.
• Inattentive.
• Aggressive.
• Nearsighted (when objects farther away look blurry).

Tips for Managing Screentime:

• Encourage and participate in face-to-face interactions such as shared reading, outdoor play, board games, and crafts.
• Turn off screens when not in use and avoid background TV use.
• Model screen time use around children and minimize your own use during mealtimes and play.

Reminder: All children 19 years of age or younger are eligible for an OHIP-covered eye exam by an optometrist each year.

St. Veronica will participate in a variety of classroom activities to recognize and bring awareness to the treaty relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in the province. The first week of November will be known as Treaty Recognition Week.

Did you know?

Ontario is covered by 46 treaties and other agreements, such as land purchases by the Crown signed between 1781 and 1930.

Treaties are the legally binding agreements that set out the rights, responsibilities and relationships of Indigenous people and the federal and provincial governments.

We are thrilled to have Pine & Ponder Outdoors deliver curriculum-aligned Nature Journaling workshops designed to engage students from Kindergarten through Grade 8 in observation, curiosity, and meaningful connections with the natural world.

On November 12, 13, and 18 classes will be introduced to the art and practice of nature journaling. Each session focuses on building curiosity, observation, and reflection skills while integrating literacy, math, art, and science. Sessions will be thoughtfully tailored to developmental stages and curriculum expectations. Every student will receive their own personal journal to continue learning and reflecting beyond the workshop.

Land-Based Learning & Truth and Reconciliation

Nature journaling fosters reciprocity by encouraging students to notice, appreciate, and give thanks for the gifts the land provides. Through slowing down and observing carefully, students deepen their respect and sense of responsibility toward the natural world. Journaling also creates opportunities to reflect on Indigenous ways of knowing, acknowledging the long-standing relationships Indigenous Peoples hold with the land. These practices support age-appropriate conversations about gratitude, reciprocity, and reconciliation, while nurturing a deeper appreciation for the land we all share.

Benefits of Nature Journaling

● Enhances observation, curiosity, and mindfulness

● Connects curriculum areas: science, art, writing, social studies

● Encourages gratitude and personal expression

● Builds lifelong tools for connecting with nature

● Supports reconciliation learning by engaging with the land

Peel Public Health is providing free dental screening, as required by the Ontario Ministry of Health, for students in all grades at school on November 17, 18, 2025. Please note that dental screening may be completed earlier than the expected end date.

A dental screening is a quick assessment by a registered dental hygienist who will take a look inside your child's mouth. A separate, sterilized mouth mirror is used for each child. It identifies children who may be in need of dental care. After the dental screening, a form with the results will go home with every child screened. If a child is identified with a dental condition requiring immediate dental treatment, the parent may be contacted by a dental staff member. A re-screening may be required.

Important: the process to exempt your child from school dental screening has changed.

If you do not want your child to be screened, please visit www.peelregion.ca/dental/schoolscreening or call 905-799-7700 by November 14, 2025.

For more details, please see below.

Ontario has designated the week beginning on the third Sunday of November as Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week to help promote safe schools and a positive learning environment. Bullying is defined as a form of repeated, persistent and aggressive behaviour directed at an individual or individuals that is intended to cause (or should be known to cause) fear and distress and/or harm to another person's body, feelings, self-esteem or reputation. Bullying occurs in a context where there is a real or perceived power imbalance.

Bullying can take different forms, including

• Physical - hitting, shoving, stealing or damaging property
• Verbal - name calling, mocking, or making sexist, racist or homophobic comments
• Social - excluding others from a group or spreading gossip or rumours about them
• Electronic (commonly known as cyberbullying) - spreading rumours and hurtful comments through the use of cellphones, e-mail, text messaging and social networking sites

At St. Veronica, we work collaboratively and very hard to create and maintain a safe, caring, inclusive and healthy environment for all. To this end, our staff have been planning and organizing a number of initiatives and activities to benefit our community. Some of these include presentations for our students, celebrating and highlighting various awareness days, and continued messages during daily announcements. At St. Veronica, we continue to focus on the message of acceptance and belonging. After all, 'We all belong to God's family.'

"Let us allow God to fill our hearts with His goodness and mercy."

- Pope Francis

Students will have the opportunity to take field trips and participate in a number of extra-curricular activities. Permission forms will be sent home to be filled out, signed and returned to school. Students will require written consent from their parent/guardian to participate. Verbal consent over the telephone will not be accepted. There are no exceptions to this process.

We are always looking for volunteers to attend school trips. If you are interested in volunteering on a trip, you will need to have a Vulnerable Sector Check from Peel Police.

Please use the link below to start your application. There is a fee.

If you are unsure whether you have a current Vulnerable Sector Check, please contact the school.

Each year, in the Spring, the school office will send home an Annual Offense Declaration for volunteer signature which will keep the Vulnerable Sector active.
