Dear Gibson Families,
November is already off to a busy and meaningful start! We’ve enjoyed celebrating Halloween and Spirit Days, and now we’re looking ahead to important events like our Remembrance Day Assembly on Monday, November 10th at 10:40 a.m. Parents are warmly welcome to join us for this special occasion. If your child is a member of Scouts, Cadets, or Girl Guides, they are encouraged to wear their uniforms to the assembly.
We’d also like to clarify a bit about our school start times to avoid any confusion. Students should arrive by 8:55 a.m. This is when the bell rings for teachers to greet students and let them into class. There is another bell at 9:00 a.m., which serves as a signal for teachers to have attendance completed and instructional time to begin. If students arrive after 8:55 a.m., they should check in at the office. Thank you helping us keep our mornings smooth and organized.
