Greetings Feeney Families,
As we head into the holiday, we want to extend our sincere gratitude for your ongoing support, trust, and partnership. It is a privilege to work with your children each day, and we are thankful for the strong sense of community you help create.
I am also deeply grateful for our wonderful staff—their dedication, hard work, and care make our school a joyful and supportive place for all learners.
We hope you enjoy a restful, enjoyable holiday with loved ones.
Warm regards,
Julie Martin

PAC NEWS: Are you interested in a Trivia Night?
We are seeking a group of families interested in planning a Trivia Night fundraiser with all proceeds going towards our playground. If you are interested, please contact Julie Martin. Thank you.
Cold Weather Gear Reminder
As the weather finally makes a turn please help your children remember to bring cold weather gear to school. Some of our first recesses are earlier in the morning when it is still chilly enough to wear jackets. It's a good idea to dress in layers as some of the afternoon recesses can be much warmer. Better to have the jacket and not need it then be too cold outside! Remember to label eveerything please!
