Recap Of Meetings

At tonight’s Council meeting Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Kruger presented on their Grade 1 class initiatives.  Their classes have been selected out of many applications to attend the Eco-Action School at Ralph Klein Park in May.  This is a great opportunity for their students to apply what they are learning in school to the environment.

Our School’s PAT results will be posted on the school’s website in the near future and individual student results will be included in the first report card. The Province has announced they are giving some of the funds back to the schools. This money has been designated for human resources, such as teachers and/or educational assistants.

The Parent Council Meeting voted to financially support a presentation in November called Can I Play Too? put on by the Friend 2 Friend Social Learning Society and designed to foster social inclusion, play and friendships for children on the autism spectrum.  The PA also voted to assist with bussing for field trips.  Discussions on where to spend casino funds will be held at future Council meetings. 

Our casino is on November 15 and 16 and is still in need of volunteers. If you can help out please contact Stuart at casino@mtsparents.com. Our fun lunch was held October 27.  This event was a great success but is in need of a Chair for any future lunches to occur.  Until someone is able to fill this role the fun lunch program has been suspended.  If you are able to Chair this great committee please let our Volunteer Coordinator Nicole know at volunteer@mtsparents.com.

Our next meeting will be held November 28 starting at 6:30pm.
