Weekly Updates, Monday, 23 January, 2023





Dear colleagues,

We hope the cool and beautiful winter weather helped you rejuvenate from the past week.

Thank you again for the wonderful teacher-to-teacher sessions supporting our efforts to create a culture of kindness. Furthermore, the small Early Childhood parent group enjoyed visiting classrooms during our Parent Learning Workshop.


This week we will revisit Tankyuu projects and prepare for the three-way conferences during our Wednesday learning session. On Thursday, we have Gr 3-5 parent group learning about our literacy approach.


We finish the week with the grade 3-4 music concert. All classes are encouraged to join the concert alongside the parents.


Let’s stay warm and enjoy the great week ahead!


Erin, Trevor, and Heikki
