Our morning began in mathematics where the students had to read and interpret graphs. They then had to write questions and true statements about the information shown.






After mathematics they had gym with Mr. H followed by journal. In journal the students wrote about their favourite extra-curricular activity and used writing conventions to ensure they included detail.

- Message to parents:
Good afternoon SJA Parents,

As we work to ensure the safest and most efficient system for student drop off, we would like to send out a few reminders to SJA parents.
  • Kiss and Ride runs every day from 3:30 - 3:40pm.  Parents choosing to not participate in the Kiss and Ride program are asked to wait until 3:40 to enter into the school building.
  • Parents wishing to sign their child(ren) out early may do so up until 3:20pm.  Parents may enter through the front door to sign out their child(ren).
  • Any parents entering through the front door after 3:20 will be asked to wait at the front until their child can be called down via the PA system.  This will help to keep the hallways cleared for dismissal and for Kiss and Ride.
Thank you for your cooperation in helping to keep our afternoon dismissal as safe and efficient as possible.

Best regards,
Carrie Nelson, BA (Hons), M.Ed, OCT


Have a great evening everyone,
