Week of November 10th, 2025

Hello Families,

We hope you all had a great, restful weekend—and maybe you were a little more excited about the snow than I was… ha ha!

As the snowy season settles in, please make sure your child is coming to school dressed for winter. That means boots, snow pants, hats, and mitts every day. We often take walks through the beautiful, snow-covered conservation area, but students without proper boots won’t be able to join us for safety reasons.

A few important reminders for the week ahead:

๐Ÿ•Š️ Remembrance Day Liturgy
Please join us Tuesday, November 11th at 10:45 AM in the school gym as we gather to honour and remember.

๐Ÿ“š Upcoming Assessments

  • Math Test – Thursday, November 13th (Edwin Chapter 4)
  • Spelling Quiz – Monday, November 17th

๐Ÿงค Winter Wear Reminder
Students must continue to bring and wear appropriate winter gear daily. It helps keep them warm, safe, and ready to participate in all outdoor activities.

Thank you for your continued support and care. Let’s stay cozy and keep learning!

Warmly,
Ms. Davis

Lunches & Technology Safety

Our classroom is full of exciting technology—Ozobots, Dash robots, Makey Makeys, Spheros, iPads, Chromebooks, and more! To help keep all of this equipment safe, I kindly ask that students do not bring carbonated drinks (such as pop or sparkling water) to school.

These beverages can get shaken up in backpacks and may burst open during snack time, which poses a risk to our devices and learning materials.

I’d really appreciate it if these fizzy treats could be enjoyed at home instead. Thank you so much for your support in keeping our learning environment safe, clean, and fun!

If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out.

Hot lunch program continues...lots of excited students (and parents...a day off of making lunch...hooray!)


Our classroom is a nut-free environment to ensure our students with allergies are safe. Please be mindful of this when you are packing your child's lunch and snacks. The new cookie store and Tim Horton's snacks and hot chocolate aren't peanut free...so please ensure your child enjoys these before getting to school. Thank you...so much...for helping keep all our students safe.
