Principal Update March 5 (PA Day March 6)
Hello,
Over the past two weeks, Ancaster Meadow has collected a large number of food items and raised $220 for the Ancaster Community Services food drive. Well done Falcons!
A reminder that there is a scheduled PA Day tomorrow, Friday March 6, there is no school for students on this day.
In an effort to beat the winter blues, Friday March 13th will be “Beach Day.” Think warm and wear some beach gear to school.
We have a lot of winter wear building up in our Lost & Found. It is being donated Thursday March 12.
March Break is from March 16 – 20. There is no school this week. The HWDSB school year calendar can be found at https://www.hwdsb.on.ca/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/2019-2020-Elementary-FINAL.pdf
