    Principal Laine’s Weekly Newsletter

    Dear Families,

    I hope you are all doing well.

    It’s been a great first week at school!  Students are quickly adapting to our routines and it is so wonderful to have a full building again. We apologize as we know that there have been a few issues with buses this week.  We have been working with our transportation department at the WQSB to fix these problems.

    Here is some information for this week:

    Covid-19 Update

    • We currently have ONE active case of Covid-19
    • This student has not yet attended school this year

    Behind The Mask

    • Here is a link to a video introducing our Symmes teachers that we made for our Symmes students:

    Covid-19 Vaccine Campaign

    • You can review my previous communication regarding Covid-19 vaccines through the school on September 9th on our website:
    Covid Vaccination for students

    Upcoming Dates

    • Monday September 6th – Labour Day – school is closed
    • Friday September 17th – PD Day – no school for students
    • Thursday September 30th – School Photos

    Have a wonderful long weekend!

    Tara Laine
