Principal's Message

We were pleased to see so many of our parents participate in educator conferences this week. If you were unable to make an appointment with your child’s teacher, please contact them directly for a conference by phone call.

Our boy's volleyball team is hosting our OCSB East End Volleyball tournament this Tuesday, Nov. 25th and our Girls Volleyball team is hosting our OCSB East End tournament on Thursday Nov. 27th. We are looking very forward to this as a school community.

Our Christmas Concert will take place on Wednesday, December 17th in our gym. There will be a morning and an afternoon performance. The kindergarten performances will be in the morning only. 🌲⛪🎁🧑‍🎄🎄

Book Fair

Convent Glen will be having a Scholastic book fair from December 10th to the 12th. Classes will have a scheduled time to visit the book fair on December 10th or 11th.

  The Advent Hope Project:

We are excited to continue The Advent Hope Project at Convent Glen Catholic School during this Advent Season. 

During the first two weeks of Advent, December 1st to December 12th, we invite families to donate gift cards. These cards will be gifted to families in need at our school and our sister school, St. John Paul II.

Practical gift cards are from places like Walmart, Dollarama, Toys R’ Us, Giant Tiger or Canadian Tire etc. Please send the gift card with your child to school to give to his/her homeroom teacher. Any amount is much appreciated. Please tape the gift receipt to the gift card and clearly write the money amount on the gift card, so these can be evenly distributed between the families in need. 

Thank you for helping to bring hope to local families this Advent!
