Thank you
A great big THANK YOU for all the quarters, loonies and even more that came in for O.K. Clean water. The students were so excited to place their stickers on the pipeline. We actually had to add more pipes already!
They also had fun wearing their pyjamas for this worthwhile cause.
We want to wish everyone a lovely March Break. We wish safe travels to all those leaving for warmer climates.....lucky you!

OK Clean Water Project
Our amazing school has been part of the OK clean water project for many years. Throughout the years, Holy Family School has raised over 3000 dollars providing almost 2 km of piping to deliver fresh water to Cameroon. This year like no other we have begun the project and asking families within our community to help this wonderful project. The children will be adding stickers onto our piping chart for every .25 cents brought in and for the lucky incentive, the class who raises the most will get to put a pie in a teacher's face!! I can't wait to see who that will be can you!!!!! Friday March 10th bring in a quarter and wear your pyjamas .....what a day to end before March break

Volunteers Needed
Recently a survey went home in your child's mailbag asking for volunteers for an upcoming outing for all Kindergarten classes. Without your support we will not be able to safely support this learning opportunity. Please return your volunteer sheet in your child's mailbag before Friday March 3rd so we can further arrange this wonderful experience.

Ash Wednesday Service today
Your child participated in our Lenten Mass today by receiving Ashes on the forehead. They were very respectful and many could retell the meaning of the Ashes.
Father Domenic asked the students to recite the Our Father at home with their families throughout the forty days of Lent. Please encourage and assist your child in completing this meaningful task.
Our Lenten project once again this year, will focus on OK Clean Water during the forty days. We are asking for your support toward this worth while effort. We will be asking for coins from the students in attempt to reach our school goal of $400.00. Stay tuned for more details coming soon.
Thank you

Looking for....
We have depleted our stock of Kleenex in all 3 classes and the sniffles are unfortunately still with us! We would appreciate one box from each family. Thank you!
The Ladybugs are looking for the clear egg cartons only. They make great paint pots. Thank you!
Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday
Friendly reminder that tomorrow is Shrove Tuesday and the students will be treated to 2 pancakes and a juice from the Knights of Columbus. Please send a few snacks to fill in the gaps! We certainly appreciate the Knights kindness and hard work!
Wednesday is Ash Wednesday and the beginning of Lent. We will be having our Lenten Mass in the gym Wednesday morning. Your child will be receiving Ashes on their forehead. We have been talking about this experience in class. Please feel free to reinforce this meaningful symbol on our road to Easter. You are certainly always welcome to join us for mass.
Thank you
Reminder Tidbits for Parents
We are experiencing some beautiful warm spring weather that is giving us all a desire to shed some of the winter clothing but Mother Nature always comes with surprises. We ask all parents to continue bringing in the snow pants and boots until the snow is officially gone. We will be going outside on a daily basis and there will be no exceptions for your child to remain indoors. Please ensure your child is still dressing appropriately for the cooler mornings that March and April brings along with some extra socks tucked in their school bag as the snow is beginning into the slush stage.
We are also asking parents to refrain umbrellas being brought to the school as it is becoming a safety concern on the bus and with preparing for the end of the day. Your child does not really have an opportunity to use it at the school and the object is usually sticking out of school bags and resulting in eye injuries.
Thank you for your continued support

Valentine Week Fun
Reminders......
Tuesday, February 14th is the Dance-a-thon...our School's Major Fundraiser! The Kinders will be doing their part by dancing away from 9:00 to 9:45 in the gym. Parents are welcome to join their child in the dancing fun! We hope to see many of you there.
Thank you to the families who have already sent in their pledge form and money raised for the dance-a-thon. We truly appreciate it! Remember these funds go toward needs for our own school which in turn benefit your child. We are hoping for a goal of $20.00 per family.
The cake raffle will take place on Tuesday also. These proceeds go toward the grade 6 annual year end trip.
Finally...
The Kinders can't wait to deliver the Valentine cards to their friends on Tuesday. We certainly hope the printing experience was fun and exciting! Thank you for supporting this worthwhile activity!
