Hello Prince of Wales Families
Thank you to all the families that donated money this week for our school Terry Fox run, the students certainly enjoyed the event. Also, a huge thank you to the volunteers who came out to lend a hand.
We continued to welcome new registrations last week, and our enrolment continues to fluctuate. The kindergarten enrollment was lower than expected at start up, so we had to adjust from 3 classes to 2. The positive thing is our class sizes for kindergarten continue to remain low at 20 students. Mrs. Goldie’s students are joining Miss Rowsell’s students.
Complete School Year Forms by September 15
Please log into your child’s MyCBE account and update all outstanding forms for the school year. These include demographic forms.
