June 22, 2025
Hello Linsford families,
It was a week of celebrations for a number of our students. EIPK and Kinder classes finished this week and the students each had some fun activities to participate in. We have been celebrating and learning about Indigenous People throughout the month of June and this week we learned some really great Idigenous games. Our grade 6 students wrote their PATs and celebrated the end of their elementary educational journey (more photos and details further down).
As we approach the last week of school, we would like to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to our school volunteers. We have a wonderful volunteer group at Linsford Park School and our staff and students want you to know how much you are appreciated! Please consider popping by our Volunteer Appreciation drive thru on Tuesday, June 24 for a treat. We are so fortunate to have such a dedicated group of parents and caregivers to support our students and our school. THANK YOU from the bottom of our hearts for everything you do!
There will be one short, last weekly update before the staff heads out for the summer to share some photos from our last couple of days and to provide our summer information that some of you may need to access.
Let's all enjoy a wonderful last week of school!
Warmest Regards,
Mrs. Kloschinsky & Dr. Murtha-Toles
LPS Admin Team

CLASS CONFIGURATION FOR THE FALL
As families prepare for the fall, we have a number of new registrations, as well as a number of families/children who are moving. We wish our families who are moving on to other locations all the best and and we extend a warm welcome to our new Linsford Park families.
The following is a DRAFT version of our class/staffing configuration for the fall. As new registrations and student numbers shift, this list may change and we will confirm everything just before students return in August.
CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR GR. 6 STUDENTS
We would like to extend well wishes and congratulations to our grade 6 students who will be moving on to Junior High next year. The grade 6 students and their loved ones enjoyed a wonderful farewell ceremony this past week to honor the end of their elementary chapter in their educational journey. Please enjoy the student slideshow and some pictures from the celebration below!
