Our new resident Elf, Lucy Jinglebell Kennedy, was clearly up to no good last night. Don’t worry, parents… the students are currently on the hunt for her.
An awesome game of volleyball: Langley Police vs JKE Staff! Grade 7 students really enjoyed cheering on the friendly competition. What an amazing community of support we have in @LangleySchools!!!!
A peek inside our JKE Remembrance Day Walking Tour yesterday. Through this immersive experience, staff and students respectfully reflected, learned about local soldiers and honoured Canadians who have served. Lest we forget.
"Part of our responsibility in the schools for Remembrance Day is to continue to have students connect to our past and our future." James Kennedy Elementary hosted a walking tour of Langley Veterans from WWI, connecting story and place.
