Hello Abbeydale School Families!   

I want to extend a heartfelt thank you to all the parents and students who supported teachers throughout the labour action and who welcomed us back with excitement to be together, and enthusiasm for learning.    

We had a short but wonderful week of reconnecting in our classrooms and getting back into our routines. This, of course, was followed by a fun Halloween day on Friday.    

We look forward to more important and exciting events to come. Next week we will be learning about Remembrance Day and Indigenous Veterans Day so please ask your students about these events and talk about them at home.  

Reminder if you are hoping to volunteer for one of our upcoming field trips please fill out the police clearance checks and volunteer forms ASAP.  For more information about this please see CBE | Volunteer page or call the office.
