Welcome Back!

Welcome back LKS!  The first day of school today was great.  It was wonderful to see all the children full of energy and excited to return.  I wish everyone a great year!  Check my blog often as I will update regularly with general information, events and activities.

Hope to see you all soon!

Have a wonderful summer!

Another school year has come to an end and I would like to thank the LKS staff, parents and community for making LKS a wonderful place to be. Have a safe and happy summer!  School will begin September 4th.

Hot Weather Reminders

Please remind your children to drink lots of water during these very hot days.  Wearing a hat and sunscreen is also a must.  At lunchtime during the heat and smog advisory days, students will be allowed to enter the school gym to cool down.   

Yellow Fish Road Program

Trout Unlimited Canada's Yellow Fish Road Program visited our Grade 7 students today to discuss pollution and our water systems.  This nation-wide environmental education initiative aims to raise awareness about pollution entering local waterbodies through storm drains.  Keep a look out in our community for yellow painted fish next to storm drains.  Thank you to Ruth Morisson and Ms. Moser for organizing.

For more information, please check out their website. http://www.yellowfishroad.org/ .

Ontario Fun Pass

The Ontario Fun Pass is back.  The Ministry of Tourism, Culture and Sport will offer the Ontario Fun Pass online at http://www.ontariofunpass.com./ .  Just type in your child’s last name and school board, print the coupons and redeem them at any of the participating Ontario attractions. It’s that simple.
