Weekly Update Sept. 30, 2012

What a beautiful weekend! I hope everyone had the opportunity to enjoy it.....we will experience fall and winter soon!


You should have received a letter and information regarding head lice. Please be aware that there have been several cases reported in the school. Check your child regularly for nits to ensure that they are nit free. Please notify the school if you discover lice or nits to continue our precautions to rid the school of this vigilant pest. The following is a website (recommended by the Regional Health Authorities) with additional information on lice. http://www.caringforkids.cps.ca/handouts/head_lice
