Principal’s Message

What a wonder-full week we all enjoyed with more to come!  Thank you so much to our teachers, staff, students and Mrs. Fildes for gracing us with such a beautiful concert.  It truly feels like Christmas when the children sing.

We are so proud of our students and families for their generous giving of food in our Christmas Spirit of Giving.  We are able to provide full and generous hampers to 6 families in our community.

Our PAC continues to sell raffle tickets and have already raised $1200 for the Learning Commons Initiative.  Wow!  Please be sure to buy your tickets early this week at the office, as the raffle takes place following Wednesday’s Santa sale.

Our parents have also been so busy sorting and organizing such lovely donations for our Santa Sale.  Wednesday, please send your children to school with monies to purchase gifts.  The PAC section of this newsletter has more information.

Staff are so excited and grateful for the upcoming Christmas luncheon hosted by our community as a thank you to them.  Wow!  You make us feel special every day, and especially at Christmas.

Finally, Friday is promising to be a great day for our students.  We will be having our annual PJ, Popcorn and Movie Day.  Thank you so much to PAC for providing FREE kernels popcorn. Please note that you still need to order this for child, and details are below.  Also, as is the tradition at LMCS, we will be collecting donations on Friday for a special PJ fund for grieving mothers.  Monies go to buy a pair of pyjamas for a mother who has lost her child.

Langley Meadows, thank you for sharing from your heart and making so many spirits bright.  As we embark  on our final days of the 2019 school year, I am grateful to partner with you each day in this important work for our children.

Sincerely,

Beth Cairnie, Principal

Santa Sale and Raffle Sale: 

The Santa Sale is all day on Wednesday Dec 18th.  Gifts range from .25 – $3.00 an item and each class will have the opportunity to visit the Sale with their classroom at some point during the day.  Please send your child with a small amount of money if you would like them to have the chance to purchase a gift or two for a loved one.  The focus of this sale is to purchase a gift for someone else (not themselves), so if you could help communicate this to your children it would be appreciated!  If this is a financial hardship do speak with your classroom teacher so we can ensure every child has a chance to participate.  Volunteers are needed all day on Dec 18th – sign up here: Santa Sale Sign Up

The Raffle portion of the Santa Sale is well under way.  The day of the Christmas Concert we sold $1200.00 in tickets and we are so thankful, not only to those of you that purchased tickets, but to those of you that donated such amazing prizes!  Our goal is to raise $4,000 to purchase new furniture for the Learning Commons (Library), as well as some Maker Space Materials.  Raffle Tickets will be sale until 2:30pm on Dec 18th.  Please see Tracy in the office to purchase your tickets.  Students will have the opportunity at the Santa Sale to purchase Raffle Tickets as well.
