Kindness Starts Here, Concession Tomorrow

1. Kindness Starts Here Day

Kindness Starts Here Day / Pink Shirt Day is this Wednesday, February 28. Your child is welcome to wear a pink shirt as we look at and discuss how we can care for each other as human beings created in the image of God.


2. Concession

We are hosting a Gr 6/7 girls floor hockey tournament tomorrow and there will be a concession in the hallway as part of that, so bring your loonies and toonies. The concession will be open for Grades 3-12 and we ask that if you or an older sibling is purchasing something for a K-2 student, please wait until after school to give it to them.


3. Hot Lunch

Our next hot lunch is Thursday, February 29, sponsored by Pad Thai Restaurant and Thai Coco Restaurant

   

*** 2024 Hot Lunch ordering is now live for all orders until the end of the school year *** 

4. New Family Applications
Word of mouth is the #1 reason new families apply to our school! We currently have space in grades 1, 2, 11, and 12, as well as very limited space in kindergarten and grades 3, 4, and 9. Let’s spread the word and fill these classes for the 2024/25 year. You can direct any interested families to start the process by filling out this admissions intake form.

Any current family or staff who makes a referral that results in a submitted application form from a new family, will receive a $25 thank you gift card!


5. MRCS is hiring! 

Spread the word — we have a few employment openings for next school year and we’d love your referrals.


6. Gala en Bleu

Save the date for Saturday, April 27 – tickets go on sale on Friday!
