Hello Haysboro Families!
Please see below for our weekly updates!
Terry Fox Run
Despite the heavy rain yesterday, the weather was wonderful and the field was in great condition for our Terry Fox Run this morning. Thank you to all of the families who stopped by to cheer on our students as they participated in this important event. If you would like to donate to The Terry Fox Foundation, all donations can be made online by going to https://schools.terryfox.ca/haysboro.
Classroom Communication
Interested in hearing more about what is happening in our classrooms? Please check out the weekly messages sent home by teachers. These are intended to be brief but also include information that the students feel is important to share with their families. We also have school and classroom Instagram accounts that are updated regularly, along with the School Council Instagram.
Open House
Our school open house is on Thursday, September 26 from 5:30-7:00 pm. We would love to have your families in to meet our staff and see their child’s new classrooms. We would also invite you to see the amazing results of the garden committee’s work from last spring. If you haven’t seen the school garden yet this year, please pop by, it’s beautiful!
Clothing and Weather
As we move into the colder months, we want to remind you that students will go outside daily unless it is extremely cold or wet. Thank you in advance for ensuring that your Haysboro School student arrives with clothing appropriate for the weather.
School Council
The first School Council meeting of the school year will be happening on Thursday, September 26 at 6:30 pm. If you’re interested in learning how you can support learning opportunities at Haysboro School, please join us. Watch for more messaging closer to the date.
