Note from the Principal
Dear Families,
As we move further into the school year, we want to send a quick reminder that toys—especially collectible or tradable items such as cards—should be kept at home. These items often become a distraction during class time and can lead to disagreements or lost belongings.
Our goal is to ensure that students are fully focused on learning and engaged in the school day. Keeping personal toys and trading cards at home helps us maintain a positive, productive environment for all students.

Note from the Health Room - Student Preparedness for the Cold and Wet Season
As we move into the rainy season, we want to remind everyone of the importance of students coming to school prepared for wet and unpredictable weather. Please ensure your child is dressed appropriately each day with items such as a warm coat, waterproof jacket, boots, and other rain-ready clothing.
Unfortunately, the school does not have replacement clothes available if students get wet during arrival, dismissal, or recess. Having proper clothing will help keep students comfortable and ready to learn throughout the day.
Students are welcome to use umbrellas, but we kindly ask that they use them safely and appropriately to ensure everyone’s well-being.
