Good afternoon Grizzly Families!
This week at Glamorgan, our students worked hard preparing for both the K-5 Winter Festival and the Grade 6-9 band concert, while also enjoying the surprisingly warm weather outside! We are so excited to see what the final two weeks of this year bring us.
Please see below for some important updates, upcoming dates, and dates of significance. We wish everyone a wonderful long weekend with their families.
Winter Festival and Winter Concert at Glamorgan
Just a friendly reminder: the Winter Festival is coming up next week on December 12! You should have received a school messenger with detailed information about the event, including details about the donation bake sale. After the Winter Festival, we’re excited to watch our talent student perform in the Grade 6-9 Band Concert on December 19.
Holiday Cheer
At Glamorgan School, we understand that these have been particularly challenging times for many families. With that in mind, our School Council, together with our school community, is reaching out to ask for your support in making this holiday season special for everyone. Please see the attached flyer for more information!
