Dear Families,
Thank you to all our families who helped the kids get organized and wear their orange T-shirts today. It was amazing to see a sea of orange T-shirts on our play ground and down the hallways. It was a nice to visually emphasize that every child matters! Please review the reminders below for next week about the PAC’s next hot lunch day, individual photo day next week, and that school is not in session for students this Friday or Monday.
PAC Pizza hot lunch day is on October 11th!
Ordering is now open on Munchalunch and will close at 9 PM Tuesday, October 4th.

* this year the PAC will not be excepting any late orders or orders that are not through munchalunch – just a reminder when you order your lunch to make sure you go and finish with payment – any unpaid orders will not go through! *
Just a reminder to all families that this Friday September 30th is National Truth and Reconciliation Day and next Monday October 3rd is a Non-instructional Day. There is no school for students this Friday or next Monday. As a school, we are involved in a number of activities this week to teach the kids about this important information. As part of this weeks, activities you will see some visual messages of support around our school in the coming days. Please encourage your child(ren) to wear their orange shirts this Thursday to help us to visibly emphasize that every child matters.

Thank you to all families who have already returned the gold Student Verification Forms sent home this week. If your family still has this form at home please double check the information and send it back to the school as soon as possible. This is the information we refer to if there is ever an emergency and we need to contact families quickly.
