Kindergarten at QM

BEFORE SCHOOL STARTS:

You, and your child, are invited to attend our Kindergarten Information Session on Thursday May 22nd from 4:30 -5:30 PM.

This is an informal introduction to school which will welcome you to visit the school and a kindergarten classroom here at Queen Mary and ask the educators any questions you may have

Stations will be set up in the GYM with teams of Kinder Educators and other community services to give you all the information you need (e.g. Outdoor Clothing, backpacks/lunch bags, toileting & extra clothes, etc.)

We will provide you with a handbook and a get ready gift-pack when you arrive to help answer some of your questions and get your little one excited about the transition to school. We have also included some helpful links and attachments with general information about Kindergarten in HWDSB.

Our Principal and Vice-Principal as well as some older students will greet you in the front foyer of our school to check-in and direct you to where the stations are set up. We have many students registered to start kindergarten at Queen Mary in September so please only come with the child who is attending and a maximum of 2 caregivers to keep the numbers manageable.

Our School Council Parent Reps will also be hosting a parent meet and greet on our Kinder Playground as part of the evening.  We are all looking forward to seeing you next THURSDAY MAY 22nd

SEPTEMBER START UP

You will receive an email near the end of summer (August) indicating your child’s class for September and a time for your first day visit on Tuesday September 2nd. The visit will be approximately 30 minutes to meet your educators and get acquainted with the classroom. The first full day of school will be on Wednesday September 3rd.

If you are new to Queen Mary as an SK student, or are beginning with is in JK you should have received a post card/email with a time to visit the school on TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 2nd.  If you are not sure of your visit time, please call or email the school.
