Believe it or not summer is officially coming to an end. Once again this year we will be having an open house on the day before school starts. This is a great opportunity to drop off school supplies, see where your child's class will be this year and meet their new teacher. We hope to see you all next Tuesday afternoon.

Today we are having a huge book exchange in the gym. Last week, students brought in previously read books that they no longer need at home and today those books are finding a new home. Students will be bringing home a whole bunch of new books to read over the coming weeks and months.

The Grade 2s have been fortunate enough to have Rowan House come in and chat with them a few times over the last several months about healthy friendships, kindness, and conflict resolution. The kids have had a chance to watch videos, work on activities, and continue these conversations in their classrooms 💙💛🙏🏼 #healthyrelationships #rowanhouse

This morning we had 25 students in grade five and another 25 students in grade six participate in a national math contest out of Montreal. There were definitely some tricky questions but we’re sure the hard work our kids put in will pay off. We now send the answer sheets off to be marked and we should get results at the beginning of June.

Tell all of your families and friends! We would love to have anyone who is interested in attending ÉGSS come to our New Family Info night! We hope to see you there!
