Congratulations to our Grade 6 girls basketball team who made it to the CISVA Quarter finals at the Richmond Oval. The team lost a hard fought game, but we are so proud of them and how far they have come this season!
United Day will be a St. Patrick’s themed day! Students are invited to come to school dressed in their best St. Patrick’s Day outfits. We will be raising funds for our sister school in Kenya through Chalice.
Grade 4-7 Parent Evening is on Wednesday, April 5th from 6:30pm -8:30pm in the gym. This is a mandated meeting from the Archdiocese for all schools. We will be showing a screening of Screenagers followed by a short debrief. Our school paid for a license for this private screening as we feel that this is a very important topic in today’s world. Please make every effort to come to this evening - I promise you it will be eye opening and well worth your time!
Spring Break Baseball camp- Mr. Grosjean and Mr. Klaponski are running a baseball camp this Spring break from March 20th to 24th. The camp will be a fun way to learn more about baseball whether you have played it your whole life or want to try it for the first time. The cost for the 5 day camp is $100 per child and it will take place in the gym at the Parish Center. Grades 2-3 will be from 8:30-10am; Grades 4-5 from 10-11:30am; and Grades 6-7 are from 11:30am-1pm. You can register for the clinic at https://www.cloverdalebaseball.com/registration/
