Another Long Weekend!

We hope everyone is enjoying this long weekend with their families. One more day to go and then back on Tuesday.

 

Covid Safety

Let’s all do our part to slow community spread. Follow distancing guidelines, masking requirements, avoid non-essential travel, and complete a health check every day before sending your child to school.  

There is a mobile Health Check App developed by the province to help facilitate daily health checks. (Parents and students are encouraged to download this app and use it daily -- see below)

 

Book Fair

Our Book Fair is on now until April 11th!

You can shop a selection of curated books at https://bookfair.russellbooks.com/ and choose Lochside when you check out. 30% of all sales will come back to the school to buy books for the Learning Commons and classrooms.

You can have your books delivered to the school, your home (over $75 in sales is free delivery), or shop in-store and mention the book sale to the cashier. 

 

Join our LEPAC Executive!

We are looking for people to join our LEPAC Executive for the 2021/22 School Year.  We are looking for people to fill the following positions: Co-President, Treasurer, Wellness and Digital Safety Coordinator, and Members at Large.  If you would like information about any of these positions please contact us at lochsidepac63@gmail.com. We hope to announce our LEPAC nomination at our next meeting on April 13th. LEPAC is a great way to participate in the school community, and is such a valuable tool to stay connected.
