Bulldog Bulletin October 14 to 18, 2024

The Primary Fun Run was a blast this week!  Thanks to all of the parents who came out to support our runners.  Director Dance visited Sunnybrae on Wednesday and some of our classes had the chance to say good-bye and thank you as he retires at the end of December.  On Monday, we welcomed our new school council.  Thank you to Jenn Tough, Council Chair, Marisa Stroud, Council Secretary, Chi Le, Jessica Cordeiro, Tanya Herrantz, and Jessica Richardson for joining this year.  Jenn Tough can be reached at [email protected].  Everyone is welcome to attend our meetings which will be held Nov. 4, Feb. 3, Apr. 7, and June 2 or join one of the fundraising subcommittees by contacting Jenn Tough.

Please remember that students in grades 4-8 need written consent to leave school property for second lunch and must be reminded of the expectations that they will follow safety rules and behave respectfully when off school property.  Students in lower grades who are going out for lunch must be picked up by an adult and should not accompany an older sibling.

Innisfil Public Library Visit with Kindergarten Classes

The Innisfil library will visit each of our kindergarten classes on Friday, October 18th to help get our students excited about reading! They will present a 30-minute, interactive circle time all about the Library, and prepare each of our students to go home with their very own Library card. This will be a fantastic way to get students excited about the Library, books, and reading.
