What a beautiful weekend we had. I hope you were able to get outside, enjoy the sunshine, and take in a bit of that fresh spring air. It certainly felt like a nice reset heading into the week. 

A few things for this week: 

Hats On! for Mental Health Day – Wednesday, May 6 

Students and staff are invited to wear a hat as we recognize the importance of positive mental health and well-being. It’s a simple way to build awareness and support conversations about taking care of ourselves and each other, and a good reminder that small actions can make a big difference. 

Knowledge Keeper – Skip Wolfleg 

We’re looking forward to continuing our time with Skip Wolfleg this week.

Students and staff will take part in drumming and learning together, building our understanding of Indigenous perspectives and ways of knowing. These are always meaningful opportunities for connection and reflection within our school community. 

Here’s to a great week of learning together.
