Dear Parent/Guardians, Newsletter – February 19 to 23, 2024
Happy Family Day long weekend! I hope you are all enjoying a relaxing weekend with your loved ones and got to spend some time with your children and family members.
Last week the grade 5 leadership students did an amazing job organizing and implementing “Kindness Week” at Ruth King! It was so wonderful to witness their enthusiasm to spread kindness. The Staff Café on Wednesday was a definite highlight for everyone involved. Thank you to Ms. van der Leeden for helping them to do this important work and to the parents for providing goodies and guidance throughout the process.
There are a couple of basketball games this week. The girls play on Tuesday, Feb. 20th after school at RK, while the boys play on Wednesday, Feb. 21st after school at Wishart Elem. Please make sure to arrange rides prior to Wednesday.
Friday, February 23rd is another spirit day with the theme “Fancy Dress-Up Day.” Please think about wearing something you would wear to a party or perhaps a wedding. Friday is also a PAC sponsored Pizza day. Please get your orders in soon. Here is the link
