Education Week Updates

This week we are celebrating Catholic Education Week in our school. There are a number of activities planned throughout the week that highlight what it means to be a member of a Catholic school community. Please see our schedule of events happening this week at Georges Vanier: Education Week Calendar

Students will also have a chance to preview our Scholastic Book Fair, which is happening this week in our Learning Commons. On Monday or Tuesday, students will have an opportunity to visit the book fair and make a list of some suggested items they might like to purchase. Your child's wish list will be sent home in their note tote. Please note that these are selections made by your child, and you are not obligated to purchase anything. Our purchase day will be on Wednesday, May 3 during the  morning - should you wish for your child to purchase something, please make sure to send money with your child on Wednesday morning. To help us keep track, please ensure the money is in a small, labelled ziplock style baggie and inside your child's note tote (so that it's not missed)! If you are available to help our "shoppers" while they browse the book fair on Wednesday morning, please let us know! We'd love the extra help :)

Thursday, May 4 at 10:00 is our school-wide Mass at St. Isidore Church. Parents are welcome to attend the Mass, but are asked to travel or carpool in their own vehicles, as the buses will be at capacity with all of the students and teachers. Please note - if you have not already completed your child's permission form, please return to the school ASAP. Thank you to those who have already completed and contributed!

Friday morning is our Muffin Breakfast and Open House. Beginning at 8:30, students and their families are invited to join our Muffin Breakfast in the gym. After the Muffin Breakfast has ended, parents and families will be invited to visit their child's classroom. We ask that due to allergies and other health concerns that food and drinks not be brought into our classrooms - you are welcome to finish your snacks in the gym before you visit our class.
