Happy Monday All!
I hope you an amazing weekend and that you’re feeling good heading into Conversations <\/em>this week! These parent connections are so vital and I know more often than not you generally feel really positive coming out of these meetings. Enjoy the connection time!

Important note<\/strong>: I want to share a little information about one of our Kinders, Mabel. She has a condition called anteversion. In common terms anteversion means “leaning forward”, and it refers to a condition in which the femur rotates inward, causing the knees and feet to point inward as well.\u00a0This is also known as intoeing or being “pigeon-toed”. As a result of this she is prone to falling which has occurred on a number of occasions already this year. She is receiving physical therapy support to help her balance and strength, but this is going to be an ongoing issue for her (and may result in a corrective surgery at some point). Mabel is a very active kiddo and loves to run and play at recess time, and she is actively involved in Running Club. She tends to get more tired in the afternoon and it increases the risk of her falling. On playground duty and around school if you do see her fall please attend to her as quickly as possible to be sure she is ok and then please report the fall to me–we are trying to track how often she falls and she is not yet self-reporting. Thanks for keeping an eye on her!

A few notes for the short week:<\/strong>
1) New school-wide theme <\/strong>for November: Belonging!

2) New Buddies start this week<\/strong> (until December 20): K\/4, 1\/3, 2\/5

3) Please remember to email me when once you have completed the Bias lessons <\/strong>(by November 15). Thanks!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3) Safe Schools trainings<\/strong> (on line videos) are supposed to be completed by October 31. You can find these in your UKG. I’m still frantically working on mine!

4) I wanted to share this note from the tech department regarding Youtube access: \u00a0<\/strong>YouTube Access for K-8 Students \u2013 Trial of \u201cAllow List\u201d Solution.\u00a0As you know, we are currently blocking all YouTube content for students in grades K-8. Starting next week, we will be implementing a trial of an \u201callow list\u201d solution, which will enable students to access a curated set of videos. At present, nearly 1,000 YouTube videos necessary for the SchoolLinks curriculum have been added to this allow list.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is this important? If this trial proves successful, we can explore expanding the allow list to include additional teacher-requested YouTube content.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We understand that limiting access to non-essential YouTube content remains a high priority for our staff, and this allow list solution is designed to support that goal without diverting from it.<\/em>

5) I’ll be out starting Wednesday and will return next Tuesday. Brad will be here Monday. Raquel will lock up on Tuesday and Wednesday night.

6) Reminder that Jammie Jam is November 14th in the afternoon, kids will be invited to wear their jammies to school. We’ll be sending pledge information home on November 4.

7) Just future FYI, Grade 1 is making Stone Soup on November 21 and 22 and will be using the staff room off and on during that time.

Here’s to a great week ahead!
