Meet the Teacher/Community Registration

Turnout last night was excellent at Meet-the-Teacher night. This event was combined with Fall Fair and a Band Parents meeting. This year it was also combined for the first time ever with Community Registration. More than a dozen groups were set up in the gym to register or simply pass on information to those interested in the widely varied community groups.

After teacher introductions by principal, Terry Fortune, there was a brief overview of the school website by Mr. Foster followed by directions from Mr. Millie on uploading pictures for the yearbook. We accept pictures all year. Follow the link under "Call for Photos" on the left.

We also had a lice presentation from Value Drug Mart pharmacist, Stephanie Hofer. This presentation did more than just scratch the surface of this sensitive topic and answered many questions and cleared up a few myths. One focus on the topic was to keep ahead of the problem by performing weekly checks on your children.

After the presentations, parents chatted with teachers, checked out community groups, attended a SMARTBoard session or went to the band meeting. It was great to see such good attendance and as always, we welcome your feedback on these events.
