Garden

We are very excited about the school garden that is taking shape in our courtyard. Classes will be planting and participating in many great outdoor leaning experiences over the next few months. We need to keep our planting beds in good condition so our seeds can grow! Please help by keeping children away from the flower beds and gravel around the new planter boxes. It is important that we do not walk on these new planting areas during our growing season.

Welcome to Kindergarten

Mark your calendar for Welcome to Kindergarten! If you have a child registered for kindergarten for the 2022/2023 school year, we will be having our Welcome to School event on Wednesday May 25th from 9:30 – 10:45. We are very excited about meeting all of our new kindergarten students and their families. More information regarding the event will be sent to all incoming Kindergarten families. Please check your email next week for more information.

Moving

Please let the office know if you have plans to move out of the Howay catchment area and will be attending a new school for the 202/2023 school year. We are in the process of finalizing registration and developing our organization for the 2022/2023 school year.
