 The Lord Aylmer Home & School is partnering with the Quebec Federation of Home & School Associations (QFHSA) to bring you this year's WQSB Regional Council on Saturday, February 8 from 10AM to 2PM at the Western Quebec School Board in the Council Chambers. All Home & School Members are welcome to join us for the day under the Theme: "Let's Learn Together!" The day will consist of small Brainstorming Discussion Groups where you will have the opportunity to hear success stories and strategies from other Home & Schools, as well as share your ideas and best practices or voice your concerns or questions. During these small group discussions, you will also have the chance to learn more about the roles and responsibilities of the different H&S Executive Members (i.e., President, Treasurer, Membership Coordinator), and to find out if any of these roles would be a good fit for you! A special thank you to the QFHSA for graciously providing a lunch and refreshments. There is limited seating so please make sure to book your spot by Friday, January 24. We also ask that all participating Home & Schools please take a few minutes to fill-out the following online form. Let us know what you'd like to discuss and/or what types of resources you would like us to have on-hand. WOW!!! What an amazing school community! A huge thank you to our families for supporting our Scholastic Book Fair that took place during Teacher Interviews on Thursday, November 28 and Friday, November 29. Together, we raised over $2,000 in Scholastic books and materials for our Lord Aylmer school and students!! Huge shout-out to our Scholastic Book Fair Coordinator, Angele Duval Bélanger, and her volunteer parents: Lianne Pickhard, Lianne Dorais, Diane Corcoran, Jennifer Mason, Melissa Downer and Julie Laverdure. You guys rock!!! And congratulations to Simone in grade 5 who won $25 in free books, and another $25 in free books for her classroom (Ms Isabelle). Congrats! |
