July 23 Updates
Hello ÉRE Families!
I trust your summer has started extremely well and you are finding ways to beat the recent heat waves. This update is for those looking to order school supplies, and for those that like to be really well prepared for a new school year. Another update will come the last weeks of August with pertinent school start up information.
1) School supplies can be ordered until August 1 from Custom School Supplies. This is optional and offered as a convenience for those that prefer school supplies delivered to the school the last week of August.
2) If you prefer to pick up your own school supplies, supply lists are on our school website at: School Supply Lists.
3) For 2024/2025, our class configurations will be:
- PreK - currently full with a short waiting list
- English: Kindergarten, 1, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5
- French: Kindergarten, 1, 2, 3, 4/5
- Class sizes are looking very good between 17-25 students in each class.
- New registrations can still be accepted through our online registration form
4) School calendars for 2024/2025 are on our school website.
- Grade 1-5 students will start on September 3 or 4 with half their class before the entire class joins together on September 5
- PreK & Kindergarten will have four days of staggered start before joining as a full class
- Our Open House will be Aug 30, 1-3 pm for those wishing to tour the school, meet the staff, drop off school supplies, and enjoy some ice cream :)
5) Homeroom information and cohort start dates will be shared by a postcard from the homeroom teacher the week of August 19.
6) If there are any changes to your contact information, or attendance at ÉRE, please email rockyelem@wrsd.ca so that information can be updated at the school.
If any other information would be helpful at this time, please feel free to reach out by email - tim.bowman@wrsd.ca. And most importantly, please give your kids a friendly hello from me. I look forward to hearing about their summer adventures!
All my best,
- Tim
