💐 Happy Administrative Assistant Day! 💐
Today we’re celebrating our amazing Ms. Hahn, who truly helps keep our school running smoothly each and every day. From greeting families with a smile, to supporting staff and students in countless ways, Ms. Hahn is the calm, caring heart of our front office.
We are so grateful for her dedication, organization, and kindness — our school simply wouldn’t be the same without her. Thank you, Ms. Hahn, for everything you do! 💛💙

Get ready to show your school spirit — our dance theme will match Spirit Day with Favourite Character Day! We can’t wait to see everyone’s creative characters on the dance floor. 🎭👑🦸‍♀️
Primary students will be bringing home snack booth order forms tomorrow, so be sure to watch for those.
Let’s make Thursday a fun day full of school pride! 💛🦁💙

Join us this Wednesday for our Wellness Fair! 💙

We’re excited to invite families into our school to explore engaging physical and emotional wellness activities.

🕔 We’ll start together in the gym at 5:00 pm

🧘 End the night with family yoga from 7:00–7:30 pm

Don’t forget a water bottle, and bring a yoga mat if you have one!

💛 Thank you, Oliver Stephens community! 💙

Together, we raised $832 through our Tattoo a Teacher fundraiser to support our Accessible Playground Project. Your generosity and school spirit are helping create a space where all students can play, belong, and thrive! 🦁

⚙️ Ready to build, code, and create?

Our Maker Kits are here for it! Borrow one from Oxford County Library and dive into hands-on learning adventures designed for children of all ages. From little ones to school-aged explorers. Each kit comes loaded with books and activities to spark curiosity around gears, building, coding, robotics, and so much more. It's the kind of fun that feels like play and learning at the same time (we won't tell if you won't 😄).

Best of all? It's FREE! 🚀

Libraries share more than books. We share possibilities. 💙
