News From the Tiger’s Den - May 25th to 29th

Dear Tiger Families,

Over the next two weeks, our Grade 3 and 6 students will be participating in the EQAO Primary and Junior assessments. We want to reassure families that students are well prepared and ready to show what they have learned. The most important support we can provide at both school and home is to remind them to take their time, do their best, and not to worry. These assessments are just one opportunity for students to demonstrate their learning, and we are incredibly proud of the growth, effort, and perseverance they have shown throughout the year. Families of Grade 3 and 6 students are asked to pay careful attention to the times that their class will be writing EQAO and avoid absences where possible. We do have two dates scheduled as make up dates if needed.

The School Council is hosting their annual Fun Fair on Monday, June 1st from 5 pm to 7 pm. The flyers with information on the Fun Fair were sent home via email and hard copy last week. There are TONS of fun activities and events happening at the Fun Fair! Bracelets for the Fun Fair can be purchased on School Day in advance or at the Fun Fair. Please consider donating a jar filled with something to the JARS, JARS, JARS fundraiser (more information in a flyer below). We hope to see everyone there!

As always, please reach out to us if you have questions or need support.

Take care,

K. Esford, Principal
