Good afternoon, Sivuqaq! 🐻‍❄️🐋🦭
Tomorrow’s the BIG DAY — the first day of school! 🎉📚
We’ll start bright and early with breakfast at 8:20am, followed by an all-student assembly in the gym at 9:00am. It will be a wonderful time to gather together, celebrate the start of a new year, and send our students off with encouragement and joy. ✨
Parents and guardians: if you have not yet enrolled your child, please bring them tomorrow morning! We will be accepting enrollment packets in the school office (and we’ll have extra packets ready if you still need to fill one out). Every student is welcome, and we are excited to see each one of them.
Let’s come together as a community to make tomorrow a strong and joyful start for our students. 🐻‍❄️🐋🦭❄️
We can’t wait to see you all in the morning!
