We attempted to to rediscover the art of skipping! spoiler alert: some of us failed miserably.
Thank you to all the organizers and participants of the H.C.E.S. Kaleidoscope event! #Gratitude#community
We are so proud of the students in EDHS’ Gender and Sexual Diversity Club. Last night they presented Springwater Council with a cheque for $1000.00 to pay half the cost of installing a Pride Crosswalk in downtown Elmvale.
@Joanne_NL@cafreeland@tradesnl Yes we do! So change rules that allow apprentices to access their RESPs while in all times of their apprenticeship, not just the small college portions! Accessing savings early on allows the student to buy a car to GET to the job!

Today @leylapotts Grade 5s celebrated the Russian and Ukrainian holiday Meslenitsa. It celebrates the end of winter. Ironically on the eve of a winter storm!!
Ms Potts’ Grade 5 class have been learning about Lunar New Year. On Friday they prepared and sampled delicious foods and wished one another a safe and peaceful year. Thanks to our Trustee @lizgrummett for joining us. @leylapotts
Premier Doug Ford says he wants CUPE to be at the table and accuses CUPE of walking away from the table.
In fact the mediator called off the talks.

Ford just said that his "heart breaks" for kids & families who don't have daycare today.
Quick reminder: it was Ford's gov that banned before/after-school programs from offering childcare today.
I want kids in safe, clean, supported classrooms too - but that will not happen if the government continues to underpay and attack the Charter rights of the lowest paid education workers. #onpoli
Paying full time workers a salary where they struggle to make ends meet is the greatest threat to the stability in the profession we need for a normal school year. #Onted
