ST. CATHERINE JANUARY NEWSLETTER
PRINCIPAL'S MESSAGE
Happy New Year and welcome back to all students, families and staff! I am looking forward to hearing all about the Christmas events and fun family times throughout this first week back. As we move into 2020 there is much to look forward to.
Family Literacy Day is on January 27th. We will be planning school-wide activities. Research has proven that children who are raised in a literacy rich environment are successful. So read, read, read with and to your children every day! Watch for upcoming literacy events at the school or you can check out https://abclifeliteracy.ca/family-literacy-day/ for more information.
This month our staff will be attending a Faith Day on Friday, January 31st. Our guest speaker is David Wells. Some information about David, “Individuals, businesses and organisations worldwide show their support to David at his speaking engagements. He is witty, relatable, and charming whilst delivering first-class information that can be used in daily life, teachings and business. In a world of ambiguity, David’s teachings are clear-cut, engaging and in the present.” We are looking forward to spending the day listening to his message.
Parents of grade 4 & 7 students will be receiving by mail, a survey from Alberta Education. You are strongly encouraged to fill it out and mail it in. All surveys are anonymous and ask questions about experiences in school. The responses to these surveys provide us with valuable feedback as we plan to make changes or improvements. If you have any questions or need clarification do not hesitate to contact me at the school.
I hope that all of your wishes come true for 2020 and that you have better luck holding true to any resolutions you may have than I usually do! Have a fantastic January!
:)Mrs. LaCroix
