Happy Friday, Grizzly Families!

What an incredible week at Glamorgan School! Under sunny skies and perfect weather, we celebrated our very first Glamorgan Grizzlies Track Day, a full day of energy, determination, and school spirit. Our students gave it their all in every event, showing outstanding effort, teamwork, and sportsmanship from start to finish.

Meanwhile, excitement is building as our Spelling Bee preparations officially kicked off on Monday! Students across grades are practicing their word lists and sharpening their spelling skills in anticipation of next week’s bee! Thanks so much to everyone who contributed to Toonie Thursday Casual Day! With so much positive energy this week, we can’t wait to see what next week brings!

Please see below for some important updates, upcoming dates, and dates of significance.

Spelling Bee!

We’re counting down to the big day on May 9, and the excitement is building!

A couple of friendly reminders:

  • Toonie Tuesday will be held on May 6
    • Students who bring in a toonie will have double entries entered in the draw, this is NOT a casual day. All students are expected to be in uniform this week.

Thanks for your continued support - we’re buzzing with excitement!
