Happy Holidays Families!  Thank you to Quest Theatre who worked with our students last week to create a wonderful winter celebration.  Our hearts are full of gratitude for their support.  Thank you to our staff who became stage managers, directors, prop and costume design artists and motivational speakers in support of whatever our students needed to be ready. Thank you to our School Council who’s fundraising efforts supported us in bringing in Quest Theatre. Lastly, great job students! Your bravery, energy and support for each other made the show a big hit.  I am very proud to be your Principal!
