Happy Franco‑Ontarian Day! At Sir John Moore, we’re proud to offer both French Immersion and Core French, giving our students the opportunity to learn, grow, and celebrate the rich Francophone culture that is part of our community. Today we honour the language, traditions, and vibrant heritage of Franco‑Ontarians. 💚🤍 Merci to our staff and students for keeping French learning strong at SJM!

Today we kicked off our first assembly of the year with an inspiring start to our Terry Fox Run. A huge thank you to our Student Leadership Team for running the assembly with confidence and heart. Let’s make this year a huge success as we carry on Terry’s legacy of courage and determination.

Grade 5 students engaged in an important learning experience today with Ms. Leanne and Ashley, focusing on Truth and Reconciliation. Students learned beading techniques and created orange shirt pins to honour the message that every child matters. We are grateful for this meaningful opportunity.

Say hello to our newest Knights! These leaders are ready to hype up their colour houses, build team spirit, and make this year unforgettable. Let the friendly competition begin. Go Knights Go!

Today, our students and teachers came together for a traditional 2-Pitch game! ⚾️ It was a fun afternoon filled with teamwork, friendly competition, and lots of laughter. The students came out on top with an 8–4 victory, earning some well-deserved bragging rights!

Mrs. Richardson’s class had a wonderful day learning about Turtle Island with Moses. With Miss Leanne’s help, the students created stunning artwork inspired by the story — each one is unique and so special.

Core French students in Madame Saunders’ and Madame Brydges’ Core French classes learned about Quebec traditions—from holidays to iconic foods—and wrapped up their cultural projects by making their own poutine. A fun and tasty way to bring French culture to life in the classroom. Learning never tasted so good! 🇫🇷

We have the best volunteers! We’re so honoured to celebrate them today at our Volunteer Tea. Thank you for your dedication, generosity, and the countless ways you make a difference in our community.

Celebrating Our Grade 8 Graduates! 🎓✨ What a beautiful and memorable evening celebrating our Grade 8 graduating class! From a heartfelt graduation ceremony to an unforgettable night aboard The Duc, it was the perfect way to recognize this incredible group of students and all they have accomplished. We are so proud of their hard work, growth, resilience, and the friendships they have built along the way. Watching them cross the stage and then celebrate together on the boat was a wonderful reminder of how far they have come and the bright futures that lie ahead. Thank you to our families, staff, and community for supporting these students throughout their journey. And to our graduates—congratulations!
