Pine Street Elementary

Our students, staff and families continue to demonstrate "A Tradition of Pride and Excellence" in supporting a vibrant learning community so as to assist students to achieve academic, social and behavioral growth. Research clearly indicates that student
success and parent-school partnerships are directly related.

The Pine Street community believes in a diversity of growth opportunities for each and every child through active, daily involvement in learning, both in the home and school.

Students also benefit from the gifts and talents of community volunteers who share their expertise to enrich the learning environment. Our staff and families demonstrate character, competence and compatibility in fostering the relationships that make learning possible and translate to success for students.

"A Tradition of Pride and Excellence"

Please be aware that the School Council meeting scheduled for May 29th has been rescheduled to June 5th at 6:30 in the Library.  Looking forward to seeing you at the last meeting of the year!

We have a presence on YouTube now. Have a look and catch up on all the news with our Monday morning announcements. Plus, we have a joke for you each week. A chuckle is good for everyone to start the week. 

We are now accepting registrations for our Kindergarten program.  To be eligible to attend Kindergarten in the 2012/2013 school year, your child must be five years of age on or before March 1, 2013. Stop in at the office for a tour and pick up a Student Registration Form(or print it from here).  We also require a copy of your child's birth certificate.  We look forward to meeting you!

The May 2012 Newsletter is now available.

If you wish to view past Newsletters from this school year, please visit the Parents Page. 

Please note the new "Bus Parking Only" signs infront of the school's main entrance. As well, please remember that there is no parking on the south side of Pine Street, infront of the school. Police patrol this area and enforce these bylaws. Please be safe.

Please be aware that the roads east and south of Pine Street School are 30 zones. The RCMP have been enforcing this, as well as the parking bylaws. As much as parents and teachers try to impress on the children the importance of road safety, children may still dart out into traffic. It is our responsibility as adults and as motorists to keep the children as safe as possible.  Please help us reinforce this message by speaking directly with your child regarding this important safety issue.
