Victor Lauriston Public School

A giant thank you to Community Living for donating boxed lunches to 2 of our classrooms today. The wraps were so delicious and the chocolate chip cookie was the perfect treat to top it off. We appreciate your generosity in helping us fill our bellies.

Mrs. Quigley's class had a great time at JMSS today participating in some great outdoor activities set up by the Peer Leadership course students. We can't wait to see what they come up with next week!

We were fortunate today to be joined at school by the Dashner family from Bkejwanong. They shared their culture, their language and their art with us and students were left in awe. We are grateful to have been able to learn today.

Get Ready, Bookworms! The Book Fair is Coming!

We are so excited to invite our students and families to our upcoming Book Fair! Join us for our special after-school shopping hours on Tuesday, May 5th, from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM.

Our Lions had the chance to celebrate Earth Day in the most meaningful way - by receiving a tree of their own to plant! Thanks to our friends at Neighborhood Forest, families were able to register for a free tree to plant 🌱! It's been said, "The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is now."

These Lions are bringing home some serious hardware after Friday's badminton tournament.🏸 Congrats to our Mixed Doubles team on their Gold and our Girks Doubles team on their Silver🥇🥈 Can't wait to see what next weekend brings🏆. Super proud of everyone who competed on Friday.

Day 3 at Muskoka Woods😁🎆 Once again, Gr 8's had a blast - exploring tech as they created their keepsake keychains, using VR goggles to solve problems, some more time on the ropes courses and a final BBQ together before departing for home.

Day 1 at Muskoka Woods is in the books!⛺️ Gr 8's had a fantastic first day - the sun was out, ☀️the temperature rose a little 🌡️and the smiles were spreading wide😁!

Our students had an absolute blast last week at the Chatham-Kent Chess Tournament♟️ Whether they were securing a win or learning from a tough loss, everyone showed incredible sportsmanship and had a great time connecting with fellow players. A massive shout out to our four medal winners: 🏅Oliver 🏅Musfira 🏅Ridhan 🏅Jack We are proud of your focus and strategy, way to represent the school team✨👏

Practice might not make perfect, but it sure helps you win medals! These two have been working so hard - perfecting their shots and honing their strategies, but more importantly, learning how to work together as a team.
