Dear Lynx families/Chères familles Lynx, 

Welcome back to all families on this abbreviated week. I wanted to share a couple of brief reminders with families. Grade 6 families your children will be headed to Camp Chief Hector on Monday.  Please make sure to pack appropriate clothing as the weather can get a bit chilly, especially in the evenings. Grade 9 families, High school open houses are beginning next week.  Please make sure you are watching out for emails from Mr. Cheng with dates and information on the various high schools. 

Finally, good luck to our basketball teams which begin playoffs next week. I look forward to seeing all the students back here on Monday. 

Bonne fin de semaine, 

Mr. Chad Edmonds – Principal Georges P Vanier School
