Dear Families,
As we approach Spring Break, we hope this upcoming time offers families a chance to slow down, recharge, and enjoy meaningful moments together. Whether you are spending time with family, connecting with friends, or simply taking a break from busy routines, these moments are so valuable for our well-being.
Spring is also a wonderful opportunity to get outdoors, enjoy the fresh air, and notice the changes in the season. Time spent outside and together helps strengthen connections and supports a healthy balance for our students.
We are grateful for the strong sense of community that makes our school such a special place, and we encourage everyone to take time over the break to nurture those connections. Wishing all our families a safe, restful, and joyful Spring Break.
Thank you!
Thank you to all of our families for participating in our conferences and sharing student learning.
Thank you to the School Council, the Gosheh and Dauz families, and Lola’s Cluck and Oink for an incredible teacher’s dinner. We are so grateful for the generosity.
Thank you for supporting our Scholastic Book Fair, the bottle depot donations for our new playground and our Grade 6 Farewell Bake Sale.
From Sundance School Council:
The next Sundog Lunch, OPA, will take place on Tuesday, March 31, 2026. The Monday/Wednesday Kindergarten classes will receive their orders on Wednesday, April 1, 2026. This Sundog Lunch will help support the Grade 6 Farewell.
Volunteers are required to help distribute the orders. Please use the sign up if you are available to help. NOTE: a current police clearance and the annual volunteer paperwork completed, are required to be able to volunteer.
