Dear Swift Families,

We gathered yesterday as a school community to recognize Remembrance Day. Our students did a beautiful job of honouring those who fought for our freedom. We were so thankful to have family and friends join us again! I encourage all families to go to a local ceremony tomorrow, watch the National Remembrance Day ceremony on television, or at the very least observe a moment of silence at 11:00.

Halloween is this upcoming Monday, October 31st, and can be a busy time for many families preparing for a night of trick or treating. We want to encourage families to remember to stay safe and respectful while celebrating this fun-filled evening!

Dear Swift Families,

We are now well settled into school routines, and so much learning is happening all over the school. It is wonderful to hear the hum in all our classrooms as many activities take place. It has been exciting to see our Cross-Country runners back at it, and our Grade 5 Soccer team is starting their practices.
We look forward to seeing many families during parent teacher interviews next week, this is a great time for you as parents to share more about your children with us, and for you to hear how their year has started.

Hello Swift Families,

On October 19 and 20 we will be having Parent/Teacher Interviews. Appointments can be booked on the School Appointments website: https://swift.parentteacherconferences.net/ The website will open for booking appointments at 9:00 am on Wednesday, October 12, however, parents can create their accounts anytime.

Congratulations to our September Star Students!
