Welcome back to a full week of learning at TRS!! As cliche as it is, it is very hard to believe that we are heading into our final few weeks of learning at Terrace Road School for this school year. We have a lot coming up, including the whole-school field trip on June 4th, the patrol picnic on June 5th, our Grade 6 farewell on June 24th, and sports day on June 25th. If you re looking for any volunteer opportunities, please touch base with your child's teacher and then will support you!
Whole School Field Trip-JUNE 4th
Our entire school will be going on a field trip to the Calgary Zoo on June 4th. The cost will be approximately $22.00/per studen which will include busing and entry to the zoo for the day. WE ARE LOOKING FOR A NUMBER OF VOLUNTEERS (5-6 PER CLASS) FOR THIS FIELD TRIP. Here is the link to sign up for volunteering: https://volunteersignup.org/DY4CW
KINDERGARTEN NOTE- Ms. Harbourne sent out a communication yesterday regarding the following: Because June 4th is a FULL DAY field trip, there will not be any school for kindergarten on June 5th. Summit Kids will be running a full day camp on June 5th. Please connect with Summit if you are looking for childcare on that day.
Sports Day
Our Annual Sports Day is coming up on June 25 in the afternoon! We will send out volunteer sign-up in the next week. Currently, our plan is to culminate the day with our tug-of-war and a colour run! For the colour run, it will be a good idea for kids to wear older clothing that they are not attached to... i.e. it could get dyed. Students are not obligated to take part in the colour run, but it will be a fun little course with volunteers stationed at particular sections. If anyone is into photography and would like to snap some photos for us on that day, that would be great too!

Thank you for supporting our school!
Next Year
With our most current data on students and families, we are thinking that we will be utilizing each of our classrooms, expanding to three homerooms in grade 1-2, 3-4, and 5-6. Some staffing decisions will be made once we have confirmed numbers in September, but it is definitely nice to be in a growing school! We will keep everyone updated as decisions are made. In regards to homeroom placements for next year, we will incorporate student voice and choice, as well as teacher professional judgment in making decisions. Please do feel free to reach out to myself or Ms. Hassen should you have any questions, suggestions, or inquiries!
Have a great week, TRS families! Enjoy the beautiful weather!
