Our students continue to enjoy the snow and the different play activities that it offers at recess times. Please remember to send your child with cold weather gear. Hats, mitts, ski pants, winter coats, and boots help the students to stay warm and comfortable while playing in the outdoors. They also continue to go outside for physed classes and we want to ensure that everyone stays warm and dry.
