Oki, Tansi, Umba-wathtich, Danita ada, Aanii, Hello PFS Families and Caregivers,
The beautiful weather continues to make O’ko (Fall) a magical time of year. The landscape around us is a tapestry of colours, reminding us that we can find beauty in all of Mother Earth’s creations. We hope you had a wonderful long weekend with friends and family reflecting on the many things for which you are thankful.
As the weather begins to cool and the temperatures fluctuate throughout the day, please remember to send your children to school with proper attire for the season—jackets, layers, and mittens. Students spend time outside several times a day and we want to ensure that they are as comfortable as possible as they are engaging in both play and learning outside.
Thank you for your flexibility in adapting with us for both morning and afternoon pick-up and drop-off as we wait for the restoration of the front steps to be completed. The restoration project will be ongoing for a few weeks, so bus and parent pick-up and drop-off will continue to take place on the east side of the building for the foreseeable future.
Hand to Heart,
Crystal Good Rider and Shauna Penner
Principal & Assistant Principal
