From Parent Council:
Our Fall Fundraiser Magazine Campaign has begun. By now, your child will have brought home a QSP package. We are asking that you place your orders personal and gift orders on line if possible. You can send gift subscriptions for Christmas as well. The fundraiser will run until October 14th, but any online orders after that will still benefit our school. Go to www.qsp.ca and enter the school code 9316. This years capital campaign includes Numeracy supplies, a smartboard, and special ed laptops. Your support is appreciated. Any questions, contact Janet Robertson at janet@robertson-mail.com. Thanks.
Congratulations to all our softball teams as most have played over the last couple of weeks. Our Junior Girls, Junior Boys and Senior Boys will all be moving on to the next stage-keep up the team spirit!
Just a reminder to the grade 1-3 students who qualified for the West Conference on Tuesday the 13th, to please meet in the gym between 8:30-8:45 so we can get the grade one girls to the race on time. All the kids will be taking the bus back and forth from the meet with the hopes the little ones (1-3) get back before lunch again.
As some of you know, Mrs. Armin (our grade 6-8 strings teacher)moved to another school last week. The board has placed Mr. Goldberg in her position. Mr. Goldberg has met most of the children already and we welcome him to LKS. Mr. Samatowka (our band teacher) already knows Mr. Goldberg so a connection has already been made to make the transition a bit easier. Mrs. Armin expressed her gratitude and best wishes to the community.
Do you believe that we are only 5 weeks away from the Report Cards going home? If you have any or questions about your child's progress, please do not hesitate to ask at this point. We truly believe that good communication between home and school is one of the most important aspects of a child's education.
