Remembrance Day

Thanks to the Veterans and all who participated and organized our Remembrance Day Ceremony.  It was a wonderful and meaningful way for our Wickwire Community to reflect and remember together.

WICKWIRE WISHES FOR WATER
Wow, what a fantastic response to our Unicef project!  Students collected $ 700, which means Wickwire   students are able to sponsor  water  pumps  for   African  villages!    Our generous donations will benefit   many children and families for years to come.  A huge thank you to each and every person who was able to support this event.   Once again, we  surely  did   prove  that  "every  little  drop" could  fill a bucket  ( or two ! ) of wishes.  Fantastic work! 

Fall Fest

Our annual Fall Fest was a great success.  Thanks to all volunteers for working so hard to make the afternoon fun for all.  Thanks also to the students, for participating respectfully. 

Well done!

Looking for LEGO!

Wickwire is looking for donations of LEGO. We want to start a club, but at the present time do not have enough blocks.

If you have any you would like to donate, please drop them off at the office, send it to school with your child, or call to make arrangements to have it picked up. Whether it's a few pieces or a few sets, we'd love to add it to our collection.

     

NEW POLICY

(Signs have been placed in the foyer.) 

Your child’s safety is important to us; therefore, we will be reducing the traffic in classroom areas.  If your child has an appointment and must be dismissed early please come to the main office and we will call your child’s classroom.  Otherwise, please wait in the foyer and pick your child up as he/she is dismissed.  It is important not to go to your child’s classroom as this causes a disruption during instruction time.  Classes are dismissed at 3:00 p.m.
