Dear Families,
I hope everyone has a wonderful long Easter weekend, and has the opportunity to share time with family and friends. A reminder that there will be no school on Monday.
A fairly quiet week when we return on Tuesday. Thursday there will be a presentation in E 5/6, and Friday F 3/4 will be walking to a Loveleigh place.
School-Day reminders:
- April hot lunches are available to order in School-Day. Please order pizza and subs by April 5.
- Hot Dog Day returns April 22—please order by April 17.
April showers bring ...exciting events at TPCS! First, the Prince Charles School Annual Art Showcase. Come and enjoy artwork created by all of our classes, along with a performance by our choir (see details below). Track and Field is also scheduled for Wednesday, April 28 and Thursday, April 29.
Remember a week ahead and a year long calendar are available to check out below, as well as many opporutinies/reminders.
Don't forget if you have little ones ready for school next year, or know people who do, make sure you go online and register soon! If your child was born in 2022, then this is your year. Here at TPCS you can register in either English or French Immersion kindergarten programs, and you don't have to live in our area to register with us. LDSB aims to accommodate families who wish to have their children attend a school out of their area. There are some conditions so call the school to hear the details. Registrations are completed on-line, follow the link to get started!
As always please reach out if you have any questions.

TPCS Cell Phone Policy
Cell phone use by students impacts not only the learning environment but also the safety and privacy of others. In accordance with the Limestone District School Board’s Policy as well as the Ministry of Education’s Policy, students are not to be using cell phones at school unless they are directed to do so by their teacher for instructional purposes. As a staff, we have discussed why certain students may need to use their cell phones while at school and we will make sure we connect with those students and their parents to make a plan. We also want to highlight that if there needs to be any communication between home and school during the school day, this needs to go through the main office by calling 613-354-2121.hen your child arrives at school, they will be directed to put their device in a safe container in the classroom. If your child does not follow the expectations around cell phone use, their device will be housed in the office for the day. There will not be any warnings given. Your child will be able to pick it up at the end of the day. If their device is being misused again, a parent/guardian will be asked to come pick up the cell phone. This policy extends to the use of headphones/earbuds without direct permission from a teacher. Our goal is to make the most use of class time and create an effective, focused, and respectful learning environment for all students.
