Skating & Skiing For Elementary:

This Wednesday, students in grades 1-3 will be going skating in the afternoon. Permission slips were sent home last Thursday. Please take note of all information regarding this event and send the signed slip back to school with your child.

Students that wish to participate in skating must have their own skates and helmet.  Students are not obligated to participate, however should they wish to, please make arrangements for them to acquire the proper skating equipment.

Important Events

As a way to show my support of each of my student’s extracurricular activities, I would like to hear about upcoming performances or games. If it is something I am able to attend, I’d love a heads up by email at cmacdougall@gcspei.ca.
