Southview PS Weekly Update
Week of January 7th, 2019
Welcome Back!
We hope that you all had a wonderfully relaxing holiday with loved ones, and spent time doing the things you enjoy. As you may already know, we said a fond farewell to Mrs. Mountenay in December, as she begins a self-funded leave. Next September, she will be beginning a new adventure in a new school. Mrs. Joanne Borges, who has been our Vice Principal, will be serving the school and the community as the new Principal of Southview. Together with Vice-Principal Mrs. Shannon Boutilier, and with Southview's amazing team of educators and support staff, we embrace the opportunity to help each child in our care reach their academic potential and be a valued and contributing member of our school and global community.
Baby, It's Cold Outside!
Canadian winter is upon us! We are hopeful that we will get outside for fresh air and play as much as possible during these cold winter months. That being said, please make sure students come prepared each day for outdoor recess (coats, snow-ants, mittens, hats etc) and we encourage you to send extra clothing in case things get wet; it's no fun sitting in wet socks or pants! We look forward to seeing everyone on Monday, January 7th!
Student Art to Cheer the Winter Months: Coming soon - our student art gallery in the front foyer!
