Thank Yous
Thank you to all the parents who have been working behind the scenes to make our community great - despite the distance! We really appreciate all of you.
Social Distancing
Please please please remember your social distancing etiquette. Keep 6 ft away from anyone not in your household. Be a good example for our kids on school grounds. Do not pop your head into classroom doorways. Treat those entrances like a person and keep 6 ft away from them too. Try and find creative ways to communicate during these times. There’s a light at the end of the tunnel but we need to keep working on this for a while longer.

Intersection Change
Along with the changes to the lights at the Lochside and Royal Oak intersection, there is an extra new rule: No Right Turn on Red.
Grade 5 Parents
We are gathering the content for the grade 5 yearbook and need your photos. We are on a tight deadline this year so photos need to be submitted by March 31st. This will give everyone sufficient time to look through their pictures for the following:
Please upload ONE baby photo to the following link: BABY PHOTO Remember to label the picture with the child's name so I can identify them.
Please upload up to FIVE pictures of past school events to the following link: PAST EVENTS (eg. field trips, school BBQ, track meet, Fun Day, Halloween party, Winter Concert, etc).
If you have any questions or concerns, please email lisa.perk@gmail.com.
Courtyard
The school courtyard is getting a makeover and volunteers are needed! This is a great chance to get into the school like you’ve been missing. Please contact Mr. Vickers for details.
