April proved to us that the winter wasn't quite over, but now hopefully we can look forward to some spring like weather during the month of May.

Students were very active during the month of April. There has been a lot going on at Credit Meadows, from gymnastics for our Primary students to our various Arts Days.

Our Junior students did a fantastic job representing our school at the Sideline Basketball Tournament held early in April-congratulations Cobras on a job well done. Thank you to Ms. Bouwmeester and Mrs. Vickery for coaching these students. Our lntermedate Basketball teams (boys and girls) are currently preparing for their big tournaments coming up in May-we wish them the best of luck!

Our Arts Days were all a big hit! Students were involved in a variety of activities such as magic, music, sculpting, painting, drawing, and print-making, to name just a few. Thank you to the many teachers who worked hard to organize these days. We are hoping to show off much of this artwork at our Springtime in the Meadows event, as well as the Dufferin Youth Festival of the Arts.

Welcome to Spring!
Our Climbers are now officially open on the playground. This is great news for our students who have been anxiously anticipating using the climbers once again.

There was a lot going on at Credit Meadows over the month of March. One of our biggest events was the annual Boogie-a-thon. Altogether we raised approximately $5200.00. Thank you to everyone who supported this event.

Teachers are now planning our various Arts Days with this funding and we are looking forward to displaying some of this art at our Springtime in the Meadows event, as well as, at the Dufferin Youth Festival of the Arts event.

March has certainly “come in like a lion”, let’s hope that it that “goes out like a lamb”.
While the weather this winter has been fairly cooperative— we have certainly had our fill of “no bus”days this past week. It is important for parents and students to remember that Credit Meadows is notsignificantly impacted by these “no bus” days. We only have 4 students who ride a bus. So please remember that regular programming carries on at Credit Meadows on a “no bus” day. The only type of programming impacted by these days would be trips - in most cases any trips on a “no bus” day would be cancelled.

Welcome to February!

Term One is now over and reports will be going home on February 10th. Please take some time to go through the report card with your child and set some goals for the final term. These goals and support should be indicated on pages three and four of the report and returned to the school. Parents and students are encouraged to periodically review these goals, reflecting on, and monitoring, progress throughout Term Two.
