Good afternoon parents!






Ask me what things I saw, heard, felt, or smelled that gave me clues that it was fall.


Let me teach you Bench Ball!




Ask me how to play the Bone Game that we learned in math today!


I can skip count by 4s now! Let me show you. I might need a number line for help.

Read below for more information about National Day for Truth and Reconciliation.

September 30 is a National Day for Truth and Reconciliation meant to commemorate the history and legacy of Residential Schools in Canada. There is no school on Friday, September 29, 2023. On September 28th, students are encouraged to wear an orange shirt or something else with orange to recognize Orange Shirt Day and National Truth and Reconciliation Day.

Students will be engaging in learning this week to honour this important day. Through read-alouds and activities, students will focus on understanding what they each need to feel safe and cared for at school and also to consider this question: “What action can each member of our school community do to make sure every student feels safe and cared for at school, every day?” This week is an opportunity for Northern Lights students and staff to come together in the spirit of reconciliation to show their support for a safe, respectful and caring school community.

Make sure you read our blog posts this week to learn more about the activities and learning students are doing in our classroom.
