There was much anticipation in the air from both our Primary and Secondary students as they arrived on Thursday and Friday morning for their respective Sports Days.

What Will We Find out?
It was wonderful to see more students accompanying their parents to our Learning Conferences this past week.

It is important that the student, teacher and parent are all part of this process so they can celebrate accomplishments, but also to plan for their next steps in learning together.

New Seeds of the Spring
An annual delight to the senses, springtime sees us emerge from the darkness of winter to enjoy brighter mornings and longer evenings. We increasingly look to spend time out-of-doors, watering seeds and patiently awaiting the arrival of more and more beautiful florals. It also reminds us that Arbor Day, the annual Tree Planting Festival begins today.
