Hello Linsford families,
We are excited about the upcoming swimming lessons this week! Don't forget to send swimming gear with your children.
The warm weather has been a welcome change during recess time. However, the wind is still cold, especially in the morning, please send a hoodie or a jacket with your child to wear. Some of the students have been underdressed and then wanting to come in from recess as they are cold. It is expected that students are dressed appropriately for the weather.
REMINDER: The bus lane at the front of the school is NOT AVAILABLE for dropping off students prior to 8:25 am. Some have been driving past the parked busses and this is a danger for our students. Please respect this rule or we will have to close the bus lane to all traffic in the morning. Thank you in advance for your support in keeping our students safe.
GOT ANY ELECTRONICS lying around that you want to get rid of? Please consider dropping them off at the school to be recycled. We receive a small monetary donation back to the school.
We hope to encourage some new faces to join us at our school council and/or fundraiser meetings this week. We meet in the music room at 6:00 pm on Monday, April 28. All parents/caregivers are always welcome to pop-in and join us!
Have a wonderful week!
Warmest Regards,
Mrs. Kloschinsky & Dr. Murtha-Toles
LPS Admin Team
