November 11th is Remembrance Day. We will gather on Monday to commemorate the incredible bravery and strength of those who came before us. Each year Canadians pause to remember the courage and sacrifice of the men and women who have served and continue to serve our country in times of war, conflict, and peacekeeping. We hope that families and staff find time throughout the day on November 11th to take a moment to honour those veterans who served so that we can live in our peaceful country.
This week we are also celebrating Kindness Day! It’s a wonderful reminder that small acts of care and compassion can make a big difference in our school and community. All year, our students observe and take part in activities that encourage them to notice ways to help others, show appreciation, and include everyone- following one of our school pillars, “Taking Care of Others.”

Title: Raising Children with ADHD: Finding Calm in Emotional Unpredictability
Description: While strategies for managing challenging behaviour, whatever our child’s neurotype, can be helpful, they’re difficult to use when you’re burnt out, overwhelmed, or caught up in your child’s emotional state. Even though you can’t control it, you’re not powerless. In this session, we’ll explore how shifting your own responses during difficult moments can ease tension and help you feel calmer and more confident as a caregiver.
