Winona News – Mar 21

Phone Disruption – There will be a disruption in the phone service on Tuesday, March 28 from approximately 10 am -12:30 pm.  Our office staff will be monitoring our general mailbox during this time ([email protected]).

Indoor/Outdoor Shoes – Help our caretaking team in keeping our school and classrooms clean by sending an additional pair of indoor-only shoes with your child each day. Switching to indoor-only shoes will assist us in keeping the mud, dirt, water, and salt outside. Families are also reminded that snow and rain can often lead to some very wet conditions in our schoolyard. With two outdoor breaks, it is a good idea to leave items such as extra socks, mitts, and pants in your child’s backpack in the event they are needed.

Fundraising – Families may notice limited fundraising this school year, compared to previous years.  As a result of school closures due to Covid-19, previous funds were not spent resulting in a surplus. It is expected that each year we spend all funds, as it is important that current students benefit from the money.  Over the course of the current school year, we have used these funds to support classroom and program enhancements such as sport and excursion transportation, Grade 8 commencement, primary home reading, SOAR space equipment, library books, technology and recess/gym equipment.  Thank you again for your past contributions.
