Good Afternoon! 

We are looking forward to the opportunity to be scientists at recess! If students are interested, they may opt to select some of the newly purchased items that will support inquiry and discovery learning while playing. Thanks to our PTA, we will have items to explore, investigate and challenge our imaginations!  

 What a great turnout we had for OPEN HOUSE for Grade 1! Thank you for coming to hear all about the learning that will happen this year! You will be AMAZED at the growth students will make! 

We are anticipating an amazing crowd this coming THURSDAY for Kindergarten Open House! Hope to see you there! 

Keep those yoga mats, light weights (2-3 lbs), stretch bands, balance balls etc. etc.  coming in! (ANYTHING ELSE YOU THINK MIGHT ALIGN WITH THIS REQUEST) 

We are excited to have a space in our school to help students keep their engine running at the "just right" speed :) 


I wanted to take a moment to reflect regarding the LOCKDOWN that took place last Friday. You need to know that your children are not only cared for....they are loved. Wawaloam School was ready to do whatever was necessary to protect your "babies". 

On Monday afternoon, we came together as a school and processed the events that took place. We came up with even more steps we can take to improve our "readiness".  We have made some precautionary additions and teachers have shared additional ideas with me.  I have heard many stories about the ways teachers soothed their students while we were waiting for the "all clear" message. I also heard about beautiful letters of thanks and gratitude that teachers received on Monday morning. 

Please know how special your children are to us, we care deeply about each of them. We treasure the gift of seeing their smiling faces each day. We hope we never experience a moment like that again. Know that safety is paramount, always.
