The students went for Confessions and Adoration today. It was really nice to see them take the Sacrament so seriously. The smiles they had when they walked out of the confessional were so joyful! 

Those of you who put in Book Orders for September, the books have arrived and your children will receive them on Monday. THANK YOU for your orders! You earned us new novels for the classroom!

We survived September! Yipee! I love October! I feel like we get a lot done during this month, as the transition to Grade Three should be over. With the cooler and rainy weather, please ensure that your child is ready to go outside for recess. They should always have a sweater or jacket. Please make sure all their articles of clothing is labelled, even non-uniform pieces.
