Christmas Events at St. Anthony

Dear Families, 

On December 19th the school will be organizing a Christmas Market to take place in the gym. In the spirit of giving, students will be able to purchase reasonably priced presents (0.25$) for their friends and families. 

We are looking for parent volunteers to help with setup on December 18th and with sales on December 19th. 

We are accepting donations of gently loved used toys, books, jewelry, housewares, etc. 

To volunteer or donate please contact the school office.

Also we were so pleased to hear that students from Holy Trinity High School will be joining us at St. Anthony on Tuesday, December 19th. Holy Trinity High School students will join us in the gym for some sports activities and we will have a special surprise show on that day for all students!

Please note the change in the date of the Gingerbread House Making to Wednesday, December 20th. All parents will be invited into the classrooms at that time to work with their children on building their gingerbread houses. A schedule will be coming home soon indicating when your child will be working on their gingerbread houses. 

We hope you can join us on those 2 days!

St. Anthony Catholic School Community Update

November 6th – 10th

Dear Parents/Guardians,

A highlight of our week was having Mathletes into our school this past Thursday. Students in Grades 2 to 6 had a high energy day of math activities in the gym. It was great to see our students working together. And it was great to have our former St. Anthony students back for the day as our Math
Leaders! For more information on Mathletes, go to mathletes.ca.

We thank Ms Rupnik and her students who were busy raking our yard this past week. They also did a beautiful job creating pumpkin bird feeders, which are now hanging from the trees in our yard.

We hope you can join us for our third School Council Meeting of the year this coming Wednesday, November 8th at 6:00 – 7:00 pm in the Learning Commons. Why cook dinner when you can bring the kids for pizza? We’ll also provide babysitting while you attend the meeting. Come join us and learn about what is going on at our school!

Progress Reports were sent home this past week. Parent Teacher Interviews for students in Grades 1 to 6 will take place this Thursday, November 9th at 3:00 – 8:00 pm. Letters with interview times were sent home with your child. Please return the letter with your child.

This coming Friday, November 10th at 10:30 am is our Remembrance Day Liturgy in the gym. Parents and guardians are welcome to join us!

Please see the list below of upcoming events in our school.
Have a great week!
