Next week we begin Literacy Week. The theme will be Comic and Graphic Novels. Throughout the week students will be engaged in learning about comics and graphic novels and even creating a few comics of their own. A few contests will occur and we will have a non-uniform day on Wednesday encouraging students to dress as their favourite comic or graphic book character! It should be a fun week:)
Sincerely in Christ,
Ms. Welsh

A FEW REMINDERS…
For the safety and smooth running of our morning drop off zone please remember the following:
* During morning drop off families should not park in the lots designated for staff (those are the numbered parking stalls)
* Please do not stop and park in the drop off zone; it causes delays and impedes the flow of traffic
Thank you!
JUNIOR CRUSADERS GIRLS’ VOLLEYBALL

For most, this will be their first introduction to the sport, so there will be a great focus on fun while learning new skills. The play will be adapted to their age level with a focus on multiple touches of the ball. This is a great opportunity to make new friends while having fun playing volleyball! Info below:
