Principal’s Message – January 7th
Dear École Herbert Spencer Community!
Welcome back! We hope everyone has had a restful holiday break! We are full steam ahead into Term 2.
I’d like to welcome our three newest families that started this week in Kindergarten and Grade 1. Welcome to our School Community!
I would also like to Welcome Back Ms Tristan Ranford, Resource Teacher, who will take over from Ms Belinda Scott.
A few quick updates and reminders …
Winter Afterschool Programs
Our Community Schools After School Programs begin next week. At present we have 5 spots available in the Grade 4 – 5 Sports of All Sorts program. Please see here for more information and how to register.
Our Grade 1 -3 Sports of All Sorts and Seeds of Leadership programs are both full. Thank you for your interest!
A reminder that students will be dismissed from classrooms directly to their afterschool programs and caregivers are expected to pick up students at the Main Entrance at the conclusion of the program. Please be on time for pick up.
