We had such a great time at our first LKS Family Movie last night. The gym was packed with sleeping bags and pillows. It was nice to do something fun as a community. The snacks were great, although we ran out of popcorn at the end. We will make sure we have lots more next time. I do want to thank Sajjad, the Senior Food Services Manager at Cineplex Queensway Cinemas and the staff for donating the popcorn! What a fabulous gesture.
This is a reminder that there are no dogs allowed on school
grounds. This week a child was bit from a dog that was tied up. When that
happens, Animal Services and Public health are informed, and the police may be
called to investigate. For the safety of our children, do not bring any dogs
on school grounds, this includes tying up dogs to the fence. Thank you in
advance.
In closing, I wanted to share a terrific book I'm reading from Naoki Higashida, a young man diagnosed with Autism at the age of five. His memoir, "The Reason I Jump" recounts his experiences with the hopes of helping others understand those diagnosed with autism. You may want to add it to your reading list.
I hope everyone has a great weekend.
