4. Keep Us Up to Date

  • Medical Information and Forms

A quick reminder that if there are any health changes for your child to please keep us up to date at school. This includes puffers, epipens or any other medications or health issues.

  • Address/Moving Changes

Let us know as soon as possible if you will be moving this spring or summer. We also ask that you spread the word to any new families who are moving or have moved into our school community and ask them to contact the school as soon as possible. Accurate enrolment numbers in the spring help establish a smooth fall start-up and help to prevent a reorganization.

5. HERO GEM UPDATE – We continue to work on showing Efficacy this month. We can see efficacy in action when we watch other people. Not only can others show us how to perform/complete a task, but they can also demonstrate that the task is achievable. Encourage your children to watch for great role models around them (e.g. older siblings, parents, grandparents, neighbours, teachers, etc.)

Have a great week!
