Dragon’s Breath Feb 19 – 22

Dear Parents and Guardians,

I hope that you are enjoying your Family Day Weekend. Please take some time to be with your loved ones this weekend and create some special memories with one another.

 

 

 

DON’T FORGET THAT SPIRIT WEAR ORDERS ARE DUE ON TUESDAY FEB 19. SHIRTS ARE ONLY $10 EACH! We want the orders to get out to students by Spring Break so we can’t take late orders. There will also be a DEVON GARDENS SHIRT DAY on APRIL 5.

A reminder that Pink Shirt Day will be Wednesday, Feb 27th. On that day, we we remind ourselves to practice kindness and acceptance. Students and staff are encouraged to wear pink if they would like to participate. As always, wearing pink is optional. We can practice kindness no matter what colour we wear.

 

EMERGENCY DRILLS

Another reminder that we will be practicing emergency drills throughout the year. Once again, please note that we will also be practicing our Lockdown Procedures. Our first Lockdown/Hold and Secure Drill will be Feb 21. Teachers will be teaching students about what we should do in case of such an emergency. There may be a chance that some students may have feelings of worry or nervousness. Please help us by having conversations with your child about the importance of practicing Emergency Drills and let us know if there is anything we can help with at school.

 

PLEASE COME DRESSED FOR THE WEATHER

Parents, please help your child come dressed for the weather. As you know, we have been experiencing a burst of winter lately.
