Good afternoon,

I hope everyone had a great night and enjoyed Art’s Night!

A big thank you to all the families who came out to support the grade 4’s for their Art’s Night performance of ‘Cinderella Bigfoot.’ We worked very hard and it paid off. The grade 4’s did a wonderful job and I am very proud of all of them.

The amazing grade 4 class!

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.

Graduation ceremonies take place on Wednesday, June 8. JK-grade 2 begin at 9:00 AM and grades 3-8 begin at 5:00 PM.
