I have a feeling these government moves in #OntEd are designed to split us up. Elementary from secondary; e-learning from bricks and mortar; catholic from public; teachers from EA'ss/ECE's. We must stick together and support what we've built, what we value!
Our first salad bar @MerlinAreaPS was successful! Thank you Colts for your donations & bringing in your reusable container ๐ฅ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ ๐ฅ๐ถ๐ฎ#thatdonutwasnotpartofthebar
While media has been focussed on new healthcare announcement government quietly released sliding scale for income based autism therapy. Clawback starts at $55k - gradual decrease in funding. Eg if make $100k will get 76% (of the max $5k or $20k a yr based on age) #onpoli
@MerlinAreaPS We are looking forward to seeing everyone at student led conferences & FDK interviews Thursday and Friday. Be sure to book online or call the school to set up a time!
Absolute truth!! Kids NEED to see & hear GREAT stories... the ones they can't wait to get to...that captivate them & keep them wrapped up in the world of the story. Share your love of reading as a model for your kidlets! #WhatsYOURfavouriteStory? @MerlinAreaPS@LKDSB
Dad read to me till he was 84. Have you read the latest Keneally? heโd ask on the phone, & off heโd go. We lose child readers at 6 or 7 when parents stop reading aloud & kids only have simple books they can manage, instead of ones that fascinate.
Never stop reading to kids.
Congratulations and great work Kara and Jake! These two MAPS students shared fantastic ๐ฅ safety plans! Thank you โฆ@ckfiredeptโฉ for visiting our school and teaching us about fire safety!
