What's Happening at The Prince Charles School

Hello everyone! Bonjour à tous!

 Well it feels like fall has finally arrived and will be here to stay. Cool wet weather means wardrobe changes, make sure your little ones don't forget their jackets or sweaters, or your older ones don't head out the door in shorts and a tank top! We try and give our students as much outdoor time as we can, so having students dress for the weather is important as the thermometer drops.

November hot lunches are now available on SchoolDay. Place your order for pizza and subs before its too late! Also this month be sure to order a Halloween milkshake. Strawberry, vanilla, or chocolate, $2.50 each and available on SchoolDay.

We have a guest presenter that I need to share. A parent will be visiting Mme. Gibbs and Mme. Sparkes F Kinder class to speak about Diwali, the festival of lights. This will happen on October 20th.

A few events coming up next week. Monday marks the beginning of Intermediate Volleyball season. Tuesday is our first fire drill of the year, and Thursday is the annual Turkey Trot. Stop by and join us if you're able and cheer on our young runners! Details below. Next Friday is a PA Day so there will be no school for students on that day.

Please see the details about our first fundraiser of the year below! Fresh from the Farm offers Veggie and Fruit packages for sale as a healthy fundraising option for families. Pick up a bag for you and yours, and if you would like you can also donate a bag that will be distributed to families in our community who need some support. Details are below, and use this link to order!

As always, be sure to check out all the information shared in the posters below.

 Have a great weekend, J'espère que vous avez tous une bonne fin de semaine!

Daily Schedule

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.
