- Skating: On February 19th & 26th from 2:00pm until 3:00pm we are skating. On these days, please send skates and a helmet with your child. It would be terrific to have some parent volunteers to walk with us to the arena, tie skates, and have fun at the rink! Please write a note in the agenda if you are able to volunteer for one (or multiple) skating times. A BIG THANK YOU to those parents who have already volunteer their time and energy!
- Pink Shirt Day: Anti-bullying day in Canada is on February 26th and we encourage everyone to wear a pink shirt to raise awareness about bullying.
- Book Fair: On February 27th, the students in Grade 2 will have an opportunity to buy books. The Peacemakers will be hosting a book swap table during the book fair. Students can bring a book to get a book or bring a dollar to get a book.
