Spring Pictures 4/16/25

There will be an opportunity for Spring Pictures. Those students who were not present for pictures in October and November will get theirs taken. Students who already received their fall pictures can have the opportunity to take their pictures again. Please contact the office if you would like spring pictures as we will be keeping a list. Only those that we know want the pictures will get it taken. Please either call the office or message Meghan Thomson or Janice Johnston in the Rooms app if you would like your child to participate in Spring Pictures.

Family Fun Fair Fun!

Last Saturday, the Family Fun Fair had a record attendance with 132 families in attendance! There were 26 agencies/businesses partaking in the event. The ELC had so much fun with our color mixing and sensory station. We loved seeing our future families, current families and past families. One of our current families even won our raffle basket! Huge thank you to Ms. Deanna, Ms. Chris G., Ms. Renee, Ms. Courtney, and Ms. Jess for repping the ELC and getting dirty with the paint!
