News and Announcements

March 28, 2024

With hearts of sadness we extend condolences to Grace and members of the Edmunds family in North River on the loss of her Dad.  Losing someone close and special is very stressful.  Our thoughts are with all of them at this difficult time.

In the Fall of 2023, a number of our students participated in Veterans’ Week Contests sponsored by the Royal Canadian legion Branch 32, Bay Roberts.  We want to extend congratulations to the winners who include: Saffron Bonia and Hannah Saunders in Kindergarten; Ava Noseworthy, Lylah Prince and Ellie Bergman in Grade 1; Grayson Warford and Emily Youden in Grade 2; Jace March, Emily Chaulk and Tiera McLean in Grade 3; Jack Tuttle, Jazmyn Street and Sydney Harnum in Grade 4; Nathalie Parsons, Carter Mason and Anna Drolet in Grade 5; and Ethan Smallwood, Charlotte Edwards and Makayla Mugford in Grade 6.  Parents should note envelopes in book bags that contain the award.

During Kindness Week held this past February, School Council and Communities Against Violence sponsored a Kindness Week Poster Contest with the theme “Kindness Starts with Me.”  The winners of this contest in the Primary Division are:  Honourable Mention, Elsie Mugford in Grade 2; 3rd Place, Amina Smith in Grade 1; 2nd Place, Kate Bradbury in Grade 3 and 1st Place, Lylah Harris also in Grade 3.  The winners in the Elementary Division are: Houourable Mention, Zoey Whalen in Grade 4; 3rd Place, Jazmyn Street in Grade 4; 2nd Place, Nathalie Parsons in Grade 5 and 1st Place, Audrey Snow also in Grade 5.  Congratulations to all the winners! Parents should look out for envelopes in book bags that contain the awards.

The winners of our Education Week coloring contest, sponsored by the Bay Roberts Branch of the NLTA, are Jocelyn Collett in Grade 1 and McKenzie Crane in Grade 2. Parents should also seek out an envelope in the bookbag for the award.  Congratulations!

At this time of the year we are thankful for many things.  A change of seasons bring promises of warmth and new life after a cold and dark winter and many of our students extend rays of goodness, each in their own way.  We are grateful for the work of Karlee MacDonald and her Karlee Cares Project for Ronald McDonald House Charities.  With the help of her friends here at All Hallows Elementary and our extended community, Karlee recently delivered 500 pounds of tabs to Ronald McDonald House in St. John’s. Thank you to Karlee and her family for this great project.   A very bright ray of sunshine guiding us all to a well deserved break.

Easter Break starts tomorrow, Friday, March 29, 2024.  When students return to class on Monday, April 8, 2024, it will be Day 4 on the Instructional Schedule 

March 27, 2024

As we wind down to the Easter Break, please be advised that on Thursday, March 28, 2024, we will have a full day of regular classes starting out with toast, cheese and milk for breakfast.  Classes end for students at 2:30 PM tomorrow with buses leaving at their regular time.

School Development Surveys are conducted annually by the Department of Education to gather feedback from students, staff, and parents to inform our school development process. The survey results are provided to the school and used with other data to identify strengths and challenges. We will then create and implement a plan to build on successes and address areas of challenge.

The survey is anonymous, which means that we cannot connect your survey responses to you. The Family Survey is now available online.  Please click HERE to complete it by the extended deadline of Friday, March 29, 2024.  Feel free to contact us with your questions and concerns.
