Lawrencetown Consolidated School

Summer is coming!

Starting June 20, 2013 we are offering an activity night for children currently in Grades Primary or One at LCS. Each night will run from 6:30pm – 7:30pm at the Lawrencetown School ball field. The activity night is free of charge and is being run in partnership with Family Matters.

June 20 – July 25, 2013 will be an introduction to t-ball (batting, fielding, throwing and running the bases). August 1 – August 29, 2013 will be for soccer development (work on skills, lots of running and some organized game play). We might change these up a bit depending on numbers and how interested the kids are in these sports.

Parents must remain at the field at all times or your child will not be permitted to participate.

Please contact me to let me know if you intend to bring your child/children). Due to the number of children and the discrepancy in age, the activity night at this time is open only to LCS Grade Primary and One students as of the 2012-2013 school year.

It should be a lot of fun – hope to see you there! Steven Young (902) 584-3299 Michael McCorry

Cafeteria Update

1) As we near the end of the school year we may run out of some items on the menu. This is to keep food waste to a minimum.

2) There is still some confusion when meal card updates are sent home.

In order to eliminate this confusion meal card updates will now show the current day’s balance, the amount of any orders on file and the expected balance at the end of the 2 week order period. Possible reasons the expected balance and actual balance might not match include your child is absent on the day they ordered, your child ordered something extra not on their order form (if they have permission) or there was a call or note from home asking for something extra to be ordered.

Sample form:
Meal Card Update
Date : _________________
Students Name : __________________ has $_________ remaining/owing on their meal card.
They have $_________ in orders on file.
Their expected balance at the end of this order period is $__________.

3) Also please use up all meal card balances by the end of the year as we are unable to refund money.

4) I would like to thank everyone for their support of the school cafeteria. Thanks to your support we have been able to reduce our losses by over 40% from last year.

LCS Plants!
Planting day at LCS!

A substantial amount of work was done by the tennis courts. A large pile of dirt and a smaller pile of wood chips were removed and new plants were placed in the area. A walkway was added and mulch applied. There are also boulders that mark the pathway and can serve as convenient sitting places! As you can see in the photo, it is now a very attractive part of the playground.

Thanks to everyone who helped on this project!

The LCS After-School Program is available at the end of every full school day, from 2:15-5:30. An after-school snack is provided and students are outside (weather permitting) for a section of the time period. We like to make it easy for your schedule, so you can just let Crystal know by phone (824-0569) by 2:00pm if your child is planning to stay on a particular day. Children can come from LCS after-school activities if you have let the school know ahead of time. Please make sure your child's permission form (available from the LCS website) is filled out and at the school before they attend their first time. Please contact Crystal, Denise (584-2210), or Lynn (584-3981) if you have any questions!

Here are our new School Success Planning Goals:

Goal #1: By June 2014, 85% of students will be meeting grade level expectations in
number sense, operations and geometry.

Goal #2: By June 2014, 85% of students will be meeting grade level
expectations in writing development.

Parents: Do you or your child have an idea for a Publish It! Riverside Press book? Perhaps you have done something special for March Break or maybe you have seen signs of spring or have a story about Lawrencetown in the past. Almost any idea can become a great book for your child to share with family and friends. Even if you have already made a book, you can make another. There is no charge and you get a copy of your book free. It will take about an hour of your time and you don’t need any typing or computer skills. We will help you every step of the way. Books can be made by grandparents as well!!
For more information or to make an appointment, contact: Angie Carreira, 584-3569.
