Southview PS Weekly Update
Week of April 1st, 2019
Track and Field
This year, the NDSS track is out of use for the season as it is resurfaced. We hope to be able to head back to NDSS in 2020, but this year we are planning on hosting our own Track and Field school meet at Southview Public. This will be the same fun day of participation, sportsmanship and skill development as it has always been. A huge thank you to our teachers for organizing this event for our Grade 3-8 students. Our school event will be Thursday, May 16th with the Division 1 meet being held on June 5th at CaraCo Field in Kingston.
Queen's Family Math Night
Families of primary students (Grade 1-3) are invited to sign up below for the Queen's Family Math Night this Tuesday @5:30pm in the library. Math games and fun will be facilitated by Queen's Faculty of Education candidates. There will be cookies, juice and some draw prizes to round out the evening. Thank you for RSVPing with the link below.
Light it Up Blue!
Tuesday April 2nd, staff and students are encouraged to wear blue in support of Autism awareness and acceptance. Approximately 1 in 66 children and youth are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder in Canada and this number continues to grow. We hope you choose to wear blue on Tuesday in support of a more inclusive world.
Spring EQAO
Our Grade 3 and Grade 6 EQAO dates have been set. This assessment is an opportunity for students to show their learning to the best of their ability. A letter will be sent home in the near future explaining the assessment for those students who will be participating this year.
Grade 3 - May 22, May 23, May 24
Grade 6 - May 28, May 29, May 30
We ask that if you have appointments that they be at the end of the day as the assessment will run during the first two blocks (9:15-11:15 & 11:55-1:35). Thank you for helping us protect this learning time.
