Snowshoeing at Mount Seymour.

Divisions 1, 2, 3 and 13 had a fantastic day on February 2nd.

Carpooling

Would you like to share the task of driving your children to school with others?  Or perhaps you need rides for your child(ren) and can offer some compensation for gas and time?  Or maybe you would be happy to fit one or two more in your car on the way to school?  This is a great way to cut down on the number of cars driving to Maple Grove, which is great for the environment, reduces congestion around the school, and can make things easier too!

If you are interested, please email Debbie at yestoyou2@gmail.com.  I will try to hook up parents who are in the same area, so please include your address, and a phone number would be helpful too.  Also, let me know any relevant info, how many children you have, or can take in your vehicle; days you need a ride; or can offer rides, whether your child needs a booster seat etc.

This is a private arrangement between parents and is not sponsored by the school. Therefore drivers need to ensure that they have enough insurance coverage.

Movie Night 

Last Friday we had a wonderful turnout for our annual movie night. The students really enjoyed the event as did the parents. Thank you very much to the team that put this on under the leadership of Joel Korn and Tim Luu. The students made a big contribution to the success of the event.  Beforehand, by conducting polls to determine which movie, during, by setting up and collecting money, and afterwards, by helping with the clean up. Student Council will be very pleased to hear about how much money will now go into their account as the result of  Movie Night.

Valentine’s Day

Student Council sold more than 500 candy grams.  Each Student Council member took responsibility for selling and delivering the candy grams to their own classes. They all took their responsibilities as school leaders very seriously.
