Dear Colleagues,
We hope you had an opportunity to rest and rejuvenate over our long weekend. We now have four weeks until winter break, which will be full of events, reviewing evidence of learning, and writing our reports.
We begin this week with our All-staff Professional Learning about the False Dichotomy of Disability and Inclusive Practices with Lee Ann Jung followed by Identity Centred Learning with Daniel Wickner. The schedule is here. Look for your groupings and locations for the morning and afternoon sessions.
On Wednesday, we have time for report writing and there will be an update from Jon about how the Town Hall will take place. Thanks to some student action in Grade 5, we will see our Grade 4 and 5 students have the opportunity to use the ramen bar as an option for lunch this week. This will mean a slight adjustment to lining up (look for poly spots on the floor) and some extra caution from everybody when moving around the cafeteria. A message will be sent out to families from the ES office today.
Session one after-school clubs are wrapping up this week, except for the Friday Cross-country and basketball which will run their last club next Friday, due to a make-up session.
Let’s have a successful week!
Riana, Trevor, and Heikki
