Hello Cathcart Cougar families, join us this Thursday night! Drop in anytime from 4PM-6PM to meet the staff, visit classrooms and stop by the Book Fair! Teachers will be in their classrooms for the first hour and then head to the yard at 5PM where everyone can visit as a school community. Note: Intermediate classrooms will not be available due to previously booked community events but the teachers will be available for a visit in the gym. We look forward to seeing you soon 🍎📚☀️👋


Back to school = back to smiles, friends, fun & learning! 📚✏️🐾


We can't wait to see our Cathcart Cougar students back at school tomorrow! Just a reminder that yard supervision begins at 8:45AM. All students (walk/bus) will gather on the yard before the first bell and staff will be available to support students finding their teachers/classes. See you soon!


Today staff welcomed our youngest Cathcart Cougars into the classrooms where they explored, played, and began to feel right at home in their new spaces! Watching them grow more confident and curious was the highlight of our day. We can’t wait to see those smiling faces again next week! 😁 🐾 🍎

Welcome back Cougar Cubs!
