A child’s school life is greatly enriched by a family that is well-informed and active in school activities. We welcome your involvement and encourage close ties between parents and teachers. Below are examples of how we communicate with parents:
Monday Newsletter
Every Monday afternoon, you will receive the Primary School newsletter via email. This newsletter provides important updates on weekly activities and events at school, as well as news from community organizations such as the PFO, Annual Fund Committee, and Church of All Nations.
As a key channel of communication between school and home, we encourage you to take a few moments to read it each week. The email will include links to view news from multiple school divisions—especially helpful if you have children in other grades—and access archived newsletters online.
Classroom Information
Individual classroom teachers communicate regularly with parents, through class blogs, newsletters and personal emails or notes. Our goal is to keep you informed about your child’s development.
Parent Coffees
We hold these events throughout the year and provide opportunities for parents to hear more about our educational program. This is also an excellent opportunity to meet other parents in an informal setting.
Back-to-School Nights (Open House)
A couple nights are set aside in the fall for Lower Primary Back-to-School Night, with one night specifically for R1 and R2, and another for G1 and G2. The evenings are an opportunity to connect with other families, learn about your child's classroom community, and meet all specialist teachers and learn about their program.
