Thank you to the organisers and participants in Family Literacy Day! 


Ice Castle Building

Just a reminder to send your child to school this Tuesday with at least one block of ice. You are encouraged to dye the water or use an interestingly shaped container. Please send a pair of gloves with your child so they will be comfortable building a masterpiece out of ice with their classes


Clean-Up Help Needed

Some little critters were discovered in our LEPAC kitchen and storage area. We will need to do a big cleanup of the area and also a bit of decluttering (there are lots of books left over from the Holiday Book Shop). If you can help us on February 17, please follow this link to sign up.


Home Alone Preparedness Program

LEPAC is excited to be hosting Kathleen Lee and her Home Alone preparedness program for children 9 and up on March 8 from 3-5:30 in the Learning Commons. The cost is $30/student and includes a light snack. 

There is room for 30 participants. Follow this link to register and read more information about the event. 


Book Fair

Russell Books will be coming to Lochside for a Book Fair March 1-3!

We are going to need lots of volunteers to help setup, take down, and run the event. Please follow the link to sign up for one or more slots

Thank you so much for supporting fun events like this!


Fun Lunch

Please look out for your order reminder on Thursday. If you don’t get a reminder, you didn’t order a lunch, so remind your child and be sure to help them pack a fun lunch of their own. 

There is still a need for volunteers - follow the link here to help


LEPAC Meeting

Mark your calendar for our LEPAC General meeting on February 14 from 6:30-8:00. We will be voting on increasing our budget to help pay for a buddy bench that is going to cost more than anticipated.
