Welcome Back to School!

 

Dear Parents and Guardians,

Welcome to Grade One! I am thrilled to be your child's teacher this year and am looking forward to a year filled with learning, growth, and fun. Starting a new school year is always an exciting time, and I’m honored to be a part of your child’s journey as they embark on this important milestone.

In our classroom, we will be focusing on creating a positive, nurturing environment where each student feels valued and motivated to do their best. We’ll explore many new concepts in reading, writing, math, science, and social studies, while also fostering creativity, critical thinking, and social skills.

Communication is key to ensuring a successful year, and I want to work together with you to support your child's education.  On the first day of school, your child will be bringing a BEE Bag (Bring Everything Everyday) to school bag home.  In it, will be a letter to support our communication this year.  This bag is to be returned every day to school.

To help make the first few days of school smooth for everyone, please make sure your child comes to school with the following:

  • A healthy snack and lunch
  • A water bottle
  • Indoor shoes marked with their name inside
  • Extra clothes in a clear ziplock labelled with their name on it (to be left at school for occassional accidents or if we get wet or muddy) 😄
  • Any completed forms or paperwork that were sent home
Thank you for entrusting me with your child’s education. I am looking forward to a fantastic year filled with learning adventures. Together, we can make this year a wonderful and successful experience for your child.

Kind regards.
Judith Petramala
