KINDERSTART SESSIONS
Our Kinderstart Sessions will take place on the following dates: Feb 28, March 21 & May 2
There will be no classes for Kindergarten students on these days. Kinderstart families should have received an email with further details about the times of sessions for their child prior to the Christmas break. If you have not, please reach out. In the meantime, if you have not provided confirmation of address and your child’s MCP please email sarahmartin@nlesd.ca. Students attending Kinderstart sessions must be in our school zone. It is important to note, if you move in the middle of these sessions or during the summer, students will have to attend their zoned school..
Recycling Blitz
If you have kept all your Christmas recycling we will be very happy to collect it here at Hazelwood. Our next recycling blitz will take place in February. Due to the limited space on the bus, children are permitted to bring only one grocery bag of recyclables. Parents/guardians are welcome to bring large bags of recycling to school on this day if they wish.
Teacher/Staff Appreciation Week - February 9-15
We wanted to let you know that staff appreciation is coming up in February. You have always been very kind and generous during this special time and we sure do appreciate it. There will be a separate memo sent out on behalf of the School Council regarding this occasion closer to the actual dates.
UNSCHEDULED SCHOOL CLOSURES/WEATHER
Unscheduled school closures are beyond our control and unfortunately may occur at any time. Therefore, please ensure that your child’s teacher is aware of the arrangements for your child during these times. This information should be accurate on the demographic sheets that were sent home. Students MUST have an emergency contact in case we are unable to reach parents/guardians. It will be important to have contact numbers clearly stated so that you may be easily contacted. It is the responsibility of the parent/caregiver to ensure that alternate arrangements are made for your children in the event of an unscheduled school closure. Let’s work together to ensure the safety of our children.

Items like coats, gloves, mittens, hats, snow pants and boots are greatly appreciated. Your generosity ensures that every child stays warm and comfortable throughout the winter season. Donations can be dropped off to the main office. Thank you for helping keep our students safe and supported!
