Principal’s Message – June 20th

Dear École Herbert Spencer Community,

Our Final Week is upon us!  A few important reminders for the last week of school:

2025/26 School Year Ahead – Please ensure you let the office know if you are moving or planning to move prior to the upcoming school year. This is critical to ensure we have accurate numbers to finalize class placements and school organization.

 

Library Books – Please ensure all Library books are returned. Lost or unreturned books will trigger an email from School Cash Online as a charge for book replacement. Should you receive an email showing a charge on your School Cash Account for an unreturned book. Please pay the charge if lost, or return the book if found.

 

Kinder Books!

Kinder Books (located at the Quay) has been a huge supporter of Herbert Spencer School and our Library for years! Proudly Canadian and Locally Owned, it is a great place to purchase HIGH quality books, and continue to support the Herbert Spencer Library –

Check out the Hebert Spencer Read and Reward Program Offered by Kinder Books!
