Good
afternoon,
I hope
everyone had a great weekend!
Please review this
important message from Mrs. Smith regarding after care:
This is just a friendly reminder that June after
care pay-as-you-go system began today!
We begin charging at 3:45 pm and ask that you come
prepared with change as payment must be tendered before you sign-out your
children to avoid invoicing and confusion over the summer months.
You may fill and hand in the pre-paid forms up
until Wednesday.
The last day of school,
Friday, June 10, will now be a full day with Kiss n Ride beginning at 3:30 and
after care running from 3:45-6.
Please be aware of our new
Kiss n Ride and after school pick up procedure! We thank you for your patience
as we work out our kinks! Please review the email below:
Dear SJA Families,
We are excited to announce the newest addition to
the SJA campus- a full soccer field! Once completed, the students at SJA
will be able to use this field as part of their PE classes, and as an integral
part of our extra-curricular program.
The soccer field is being constructed in a section
of the SJA parking lot. This creates a need to modify the
Kiss-and-Ride system, as the route previously used is now occupied by the
soccer field turf.
Beginning today, May 17th, the 'exit'
lane of the parking lot will be split into two lanes, with cars
passing in and out. The entrance to the parking lot will also be
modified. These areas will be clearly marked with pylons, and staff will
be on hand to provide assistance to cars entering and exiting the
Kiss-and-Ride.
Parent/Guardians not looking to join the
Kiss-and-Ride system are encouraged to use the Meadowvale 4 Rinks parking lot
to park their cars. The parking lot will be very busy during Kiss-and-Ride
times (3:30- 3:40), though parking spaces will be available if desired. The
front door will be unlocked right at 3:30pm to allow parents who have parked to
have access to the school to pick up their children.
We thank you for your patience while we work on
perfecting this new system. Please let us know if you have any questions.

also had a presentation from some grade 6 students on Internet safety and the
use of proper websites.
