February is a busy and exciting month at our school! This month, we celebrate Valentine’s Day, a time to share love, friendship and caring words with one another. We also take part in Pink Shirt Day, reminding everyone how important it is to stand up for kindness and stand up against those who are being unkind. Many families in our community are also celebrating Lunar New Year, a joyful time filled with traditions, family gatherings, and hopes for a lucky year ahead. Some of our students and families are also preparing for or observing Ramadan, a special time of reflection, gratitude, and generosity. We also have Family Day coming up this month and we want to express our gratitude to our Jarvis family, which is all of you! February is a wonderful reminder that our school is a caring and diverse community, where we learn from and respect one another every day.

- Your child will bring home a postcard with a QR code that you can scan to access our school’s fundraising page. We encourage everyone to do their best to support the amazing work of the Heart and Stroke Foundation.
