Reminder
| Dear Parents/Guardians, |
| World Water Day is a global event celebrated each year on March 22nd. On this day, people around the world take action to conserve water, educate others, and celebrate this vital resource! This year, Monsignor Haller will be participating in a national day of action supported by EcoSchools Canada called The Great Gulp! On Wednesday March 22nd we will have a school-wide, synchronized drink of water from a reusable bottle. Through this simple action we hope to raise awareness about drinking water, access to safe and healthy water, and the importance of reducing single-use plastic waste. |
Heads Up for Headstart Grade 8 Parents
| Attention to all Grade 8 Students and Parents: |
Sign up today, as spots fill up quickly! We highly recommend the Headstart Program for students in Grade 8 who will be attending St. Mary’s in the Fall 2023. Some of the activities students in this program will explore are, engage in fun games, review their schedules, find their lockers, tour of the school, and fun games with other grade nines to help them make connections.
