November 30
First Sunday of Advent
As our nights grow longer and our days grow short,
we look on these earthly signs--light and green branches--
and remember God's promise to our world:
Christ, our Light and our Hope, will come.
O Emmanuel, Jesus Christ,
desire of every nation,
Saviour of all peoples,
come and dwell among us.

Winter weather has arrived!
Please be sure your child is coming to school properly dressed to go outside at recess - warm coat, boots, mittens, & hat. Boots and shoes worn outside may not be worn in the classroom; your child needs to bring a pair of "indoor" shoes for the winter. It is recommended that they have a pair of indoor shoes which may be left at school through the week.
In the event of extreme winter weather conditions, buses may be cancelled or schools may be closed. For information on this, go to Weather Cancellations, found under the Interesting Links on the right. |

Check out the sidebar on the Extracurricular page to read about the victorious Staff Mustangs!
Unfortunately, we have been unable to find a good date to reschedule our visiting choir concert. Hopefully we will be able to find a time in the spring to hear the Brampton Festival Youth Choir. In the meantime, money which was collected for the concert will be refunded. Teachers will give the $3.00 refund to parents during interviews next week.
