We’re excited to see everyone soon! For new K0/K1/K2 families, please see the message below from Ally Hronicek about an opportunity to meet other students and families before school starts! Please like or comment on this post if you would like to attend or need more info!

“Hello incoming K1 families! My son is starting in K1 next month and I think it would be great for him to see some familiar faces on the first day of school. We would love to organize a playground meet up for other K0/K1/K2 at Roger’s Playground on Friday 9/4 at 4:30pm for anyone who would like to join. Hope to meet some new friends there!”
