Remembrance Day

NO SCHOOL on FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 11th.

We will still accept donations for poppies on Monday. All the students received a poppy at school today and we would like to donate the funds to the local Legion.

Thank you to our Gr. 6’s for a wonderful assembly today, honouring the fallen soldiers, the veterans and those who still fight in conflicts around the world.

Staffing Changes

We would like to wish Mrs. Que the best of luck in her future endeavors. She will be dearly missed at St. Patrick’s and hope she will come and visit us!

We welcome Mrs. Hachulla to the Celtics Family!
