December 1st Update

Thank you to our generous school council and amazing volunteer, Mrs. Friesen as well as Mrs. Greenhall, Mrs. Green and our gardening team. Three new raised planters were added to our garden by the CBE grounds crew.  Our awesome team have them prepped for the winter. The drainage base layer and drainage/filter fabric on the planters interior have been installed this should create a well draining planter for the life of the planter. The students helped add the twigs and leaves. The CBE crew will deliver some compost in buckets for the students to add as the final layer. Fingers crossed by spring the layers will have turned into a fantastic garden soil to be planted!

WorkBee

Thank you to the parents who were able to volunteer for our first work bee! Teachers were thrilled to have their items prepped and completed. We really appreciate the support.  The next work bee will be mid December. Please connect with lbsvolunteercoordinator@gmail.com if you would like to volunteer for this or other upcoming events.

Gratitude

The December Montessori tenet is Gratitude.  As our school motto demonstrates: Peace, Gratitude, Montessori, we know that this is an important aspect of our school community. We want to express our gratitude for all of our families. We appreciate the way you support us and work collaboratively in the best interests of our school.

Winter Event

Lake Bonavista School is thrilled to welcome all Lake Bonavista Families to our LBS Winter Solstice on Thursday December 14 from 6:30-8:00 pm.

 

LBS students and their households are welcome to attend. With over 370 students at our school, this will help keep the numbers manageable.  Thank you for your understanding.

 

Family Activities will be happening throughout the school.  Each student will also be participating in a Short Music Performance.  Students will perform on the stage and household members will be part of a standing audience.  Students will need to be at the Kindergarten room 10 minutes before each performance to allow time to get organized for the stage. Please see the email from Mrs. Kawchuck for more details on the performance schedule.

  

Students are expected to be with adult family members at all times, with the exception of when they are getting ready in the Kindergarten room and when they are performing.

 All students will be dismissed to their parents in the gym after their performance.
