Welcoming Conversations

Hi friends

This week is a busy one!

• Just a reminder that your child has brought home a notice with your time and day for our 10 min conversation. If you are unsure of your time, check your child’s planner for this notice or call the school, we can help you out!
• Thursday and Friday are early dismissal days for Maywood. Our division will be let out at 1:50pm each day.
• This Friday, Sept 24 is the TERRY FOX run – students will be running with their class at Bonzor.  Students should dress for running activity!
• Monday, Sept. 27th is a Pro-D day (no school for students)

Thursday, Sept. 30th is Truth and Reconciliation Day (no school). We will be spending time next week discussing our history with residential schools and the impact on Indigenous Peoples. We will be watching portions of a documentary on the Making of the Witness Blanket. Students will hear some survivor stories; this will be discussed with awareness and gentleness. However, if you or your family members have a history with residential schools, please let us know if you would not like to participate in this learning or you would like us to provide extra support during this time.
