Our Weekly Sept. 19

Sept. 19, 2025

Dear River Runner Families,

We finished up the week with crazy outfits and popcorn. Thank you to our PAC for making today special. This week we focussed on moving calmly around our school and taking care of each other. Especially when playing outside. We will continue to focus on kindness and school appropriate play as we move forward. Next week we have no school on Monday as all of our staff is participating in our District Wide Indigenous Learning Day. On Thursday we will participate in the Terry Fox Run. Please send a Twoonie for Terry if you can. On Friday our whole school will head to French Beach for the day. We are looking forward to a day of being outside and building friendships.

• Please see the communication guidelines attached.
• Welcome to our new counselor at Saseenos, Rachelle Vallevand. Please see Rachelle’s welcome letter that explains a counselor’s role and services she can provide in the school setting.
