Spring Creek Communicator - April 05, 2024
Greetings everyone and welcome to the final semester!
We already had some excitement here with some final basketball games to tie up the season. We had our girls’ and boys’ teams play a final game yesterday and they had lots of fun. The final district tournament happens here at Spring Creek starting this afternoon and continuing after school. Come out and cheer people on! Track and Field starts soon.
We have important information to share regarding the solar eclipse, which will occur on Monday. It is important people understand not to look at it directly as it may cause damage to the eyes. At Spring Creek, we will only need to make slight adjustments to our recess routines to keep students safe and we will supervise them in order to avoid exposure. Please read more information here SOLAR ECLIPSE
Important dates ahead:
April 16 – School screening for Kindergarten Kids for hearing and dental
April 23 – Vaccination for Grade 6
