Dear Primary 3 Parents,

Welcome! Ms. Joanne, Ms. Alisa, and Ms. Kristen are so excited having all of you join us this school year. It has been a pleasure to meet new friends and such a joy to see familiar faces.

The first week of school was a success! The children are adjusting beautifully, making new friends, getting to know their teachers, and learning plenty of new work. We know there have been tears during drop off, and we understand that you might be concerned. However, please be assured they settle down into a routine quickly and go about their very busy day. We will call you if we cannot console your child, after utilizing all of our skills and TLC touch. We recommend quick goodbyes at the door with a teacher’s help if needed, and encourage your child to put away their things on their own to foster independence. We have been focusing on ground rules, classroom routines and procedures, making friends, reviewing work from the previous school year, and introducing new ones.

Every month there will be sign-up sheets outside our classroom door for volunteers, weekly snacks, and practical life supplies. There is also a communication notebook for you to inform us of absences, appointments, etc. Please keep in mind that the notes are seen by other parents, so please make an appointment with us after school for confidential or sensitive discussions. Communication between parents and teachers is essential to ensure a successful year, so please note our contact information:
