Thank Yous
Thank you to all the Crossing Guards, both staff and student volunteers, for helping keep all the children and families safe when crossing Royal Oak Drive.

Fundraising
During the current year's budgeting process it became very evident how COVID-19 will impact our budget.  Due to the pandemic we are unable to run any of our regular fundraisers, leaving LEPAC wondering how to fund the many initiatives we support.  Consequently, we will be looking for new ways to fund our initiatives. So keep your eyes and ears peeled as to how you can help support LEPAC and our school community (hint: watch for opportunity to purchase holiday chocolate). If you have any ideas you wish to share please email us at lochsidepac63@gmail.com 

Strong Start
Our StrongStart program is soon opening its doors!  Please note that StrongStart will be following Public Health Guidance with respect to COVID safety protocols.  Visitors must pre-register in order to attend.  You can learn about how to sign up for the program here.  Hours at Lochside will be 9:30-10:30 on Monday and Wednesday mornings.
