Liebe Eltern, dear parents and guardians,

On Monday, our much anticipated Ballroom Dance Residency starts with Mr. Martin. Teachers will join the learning experience and have as much fun as the students in trying something new. We will all witness their learning during our winter celebration evenings just before the winter break. Mark the date in your calendar!!!

Thank you to the many parents who joined us this week for parent-teacher conferences. It was wonderful to see so many of you. I hope that you found them to be informative.

Our grade 6 students will have a presentation from Branton School towards the end of January to show them the opportunity to enrol in Late French Immersion for grade 7. Learning a second (third) language opens many doors in life. Canada being a bilingual country and most government jobs requiring French, this is a program worth exploring as it will open up university and job opportunities later on in life.

Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.

Warm Regards,
Meike Thomsen, Principal
