Hello parents! Yesterday I sent home a permission form regarding the field trip to Maples, which is our new “sister” school. There is no cost for this trip. We will be heading over around 11:30 am on Thursday, and will return in time for pick up. Please send the permission form tomorrow, or else you child will not be able to attend, and will have to stay home for that day. It is also spirit week, so please have students come dresses in their house colours!

Please send in your registration forms in soon as classes are already filling up!!
