Important Dates and/or Reminders:

  • Last day for the book fair is Tuesday (tomorrow).
  • Lochside Trail walk is on Wednesday, weather permitting. Feel free to join us by signing up here.
  • Report cards will be sent to you either on December 1st or 2nd. I will be completing report cards through FreshGrade where you will be able to view, save it as a pdf to your computer, or print it. If you would prefer I am able to print it off at the school and send home a paper copy. Please let me know if this is your preference by Monday.
  • I will be away again this Friday attending the First Nations Education Steering Committee conference in Vancouver and will be sharing a project I worked on in our school district. I am excited for this opportunity but will miss being in the classroom with the students. I try not to be away too often but sometimes everything happens around the same time. Ms. Afford will be our 'guest teacher' on Friday.
