STEAM Family Night – Call for Support
We are excited to share that our School Council will be supporting a STEAM Family Night (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math) on April 16. This evening will bring students and families together to explore hands-on activities connected to STEAM. As we prepare for the event, School Council is also looking to connect with any community contacts or partners who might support or enhance the evening. If you have a contact, connection, or resource that you think could contribute to this event, please reach out to School Council ([email protected]).
More event details will be shared soon. We look forward to seeing many families there.

Are You Moving? – To help with planning, notify your child’s homeroom teacher or the school office if you will not be returning for September 2026. Registration has not only begun for Kindergarten but any students entering an HWDSB school for September 2026. If you are planning on moving within the district, you can register for your September school now. Early registration helps schools plan for their September staffing and enrollment.
