Highlights
Today we were practicing the sounds
associated with “l” and “m”. We played a game of soccer again in gym
today! We did a colour science
experiment to learn about primary and secondary colours.
Needed from Home
******Please send your child with a pair of their
own individual earphones labled with their name. We will be using these daily at our literacy
centres. Due to health concerns every child
will require their own set of headphones. Thank you to those who have
brought yours in!
We are also
collecting water bottle lids. Please
send in any that you may have. Thank
you!!!

Walk to School!
Last spring we invited all families attending
PHS to join with their friends and neighbours to walk to school every Wednesday
and Friday morning. Let's continue to make this simple change that results in
big benefits! We encourage you to explore the residential areas around the
school for parking spaces that are more convenient while being mindful about
parking in front of private driveways. Parking just two or three blocks away
from the school will reduce frustration and increase everyone’s safety! You may enter child in a draw if they walk to
school on these days…see the school website for details.
To support children in becoming knowledgeable
readers, the most important thing parents can do is to read aloud to their
children and talk about what has been read. This nightly process supports
children in developing oral language skills (the ability to talk in a fluid and
understandable manner), comprehension (understanding what has been read), and
sparks enthusiasm toward the act of reading. We created this downloadable
document to support parents in identifying the expectations for readers during
their years at PHS:
