What a great way to spend Valentine's Day! 

Congratulations to our Seeds of Hope members who are truly showing the meaning of Love today! 
They have been working very hard with their "Have a Heart Buy a Heart" campaign where all proceeds will  support "Free the Children" and build a school in Africa. 

Happy Valentine's Day!

Figura Theatre Visit

On Friday, the Grades 1 - 4 classes participated in a wonderful performance called Metamorphosis, by the Figura Theatre.  The performance was a series of silent short stories using puppets.  The students were completely engaged with the superb puppetry and story telling of Bearndt, the visiting artist from Iceland.

Thank you to the Parent Council for sponsoring this event, and for all the parents in this community.  Your fundraising dollars allow us to have such wonderful performances in the school!

Safety Reps

Congratulations to the School Safety Reps, under the direction of Ms. Caddel, for their excellent presentations today.  The Safety Reps are students in Grades 4 - 8 who volunteer and meet on a regular basis to teach others about Safety.  They decided that this month, they would prepare a skit on Bullying.  It was a truly inspiration presentation and all the students in Grade 1 - 3 had a chance to learn about School Safety and Bullying, and dialogue during the question and answer period.  One Grade 2 student said " I really liked the play because it taught me to treat others how I would like to be treated".  WOW... what a great message.  One of the Safety Reps, in a post-presentation meeting said "we should plan more activities because this is fun".
Great work everyone and THANK YOU for making LKS a safer place!
