Staffing Change

On Tuesday, Feb. 21, we welcome back Ms. Sarah Green to the Kindergarten classroom. You may remember that Ms. Green was apart of the Centreville staff a few years ago, supporting Ms. Whiteside in the role of Early Child Educator. The students and staff are excited for her return! Welcome back, Ms. Green!

We would like to take this opportunity to send a BIG thank-you to Ms. Sarah Neal, ECE, who supported the kindergarten class while this transition took place. Thank-you, Ms. Neal!

Update on Before/After School Care for 2023-24

There was sufficient interest by parents/guardians to the survey we conducted in December to move forward with the next step in providing Before/After school child care beginning September 2023. Limestone DSB has issued a Request for Service to the local daycare providers. If there is a favourable response from at least one of these providers, then we move ahead. We will update families as information becomes available.

Kindergarten Registration for September 2023

Kindergarten offers a wonderful new world of learning and growing. We learn how to read, how to write and we make new friends. Our educator teams help us along the way. Do you have a 4- or 5-year-old ready for school this September? We are now accepting registrations at https://bit.ly/Kinder_2023

Limestone Kindergarten programs, offered in both French Immersion and English, aim to nurture the whole child. The Kindergarten program allows children to develop emotionally, socially and physically: to grow creatively, and to engage in rich oral language opportunities and celebrate their learning.

Transition to Kindergarten: Supporting students with special education needs
