Greetings! We have had a great few days back after March break and I look forward to the weather warming up for our first full week back. Our final quarter is approaching along with more events where we come together as a school. Take note of important dates throughout this post and continue to do so as the year comes to a close.
Lacrosse Day
Brad Bissett has organized a lacrosse day for all students grades 1-6 on Tuesday, April 10th from 3:00 till 4:30. Students should wear athletic footwear and clothing. This will be a wonderful opportunity for our students to learn about another sport.

Tickets for A Knight to Remember are now available for purchase! On Friday, April 27th there will be an evening of fellowship and celebration as we honour Mrs. Anne Laird, Mrs. Elsie Barrett, and Mr. Neil Thompson for their significant contributions throughout their years of service at GCS thus far.

New Verse
Our new verse 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 has been sent home. We read through this verse every morning as part of our morning routine however, this verse is a long one for our students so I encourage you to help your child in reading through this verse at home. If a copy of the verse is not going home please let us know.
