Principal’s Message|
“Learning is an active process. We learn by doing. Only knowledge that is used stays in your mind.”
~ Dale Carnegie
When we walk around the school, we can clearly see that learning is a process. Learning does not happen all at once. It happens over time as students practice, try new ideas, and build their skills.
This week, our students demonstrated their learning of inline skating, demonstrating resilience as they became more confident and skilled with each lesson they had. In grade 6, we saw students learning to connecting art and writing to one another. Our grade 1 students have been learning to share their unique qualities and emotions.
Learning is active. Students learn by thinking about information, making connections, and using what they learn in new ways. Learning is also influenced by the world around us. Students learn from their experiences and from working with their classmates and teachers.
We look forward to sharing more about your child’s learning with you next week during our Student-Led Conferences.
Warm Regards,
Lisa and Jenn

Substitute Teachers’ Appreciation Week|
This past week was Substitute Teachers’ Appreciation Week. Substitute teachers help our school when classroom teachers are away. They often come in with little notice and help keep learning going for our students.
We would like to say thank you to all substitute teachers for the important work they do and for supporting our school community.
