Did y
ou know that Dorothy Lynas has a few snow angels? It’s a big job clearing the snow around the school and we have a dedicated and helpful group of parents who shoveled the pathways last night! Thank you so very much Eliza and Mack.
The PAC has purchased some shovels and if you have a few minutes before pick-up or after school we would love your help. As we are expecting more snow in the forecast, we know we will need more snow angles. Remember many hands make light work.
Friday January 25th is Dorothy Lynas Movie Night!
Get your pizza, popcorn and treats! DL Family Movie Night will take place on Friday Jan 25th. This year we are pleased to invite both our English and French classes to share in one night together!

Did you know that when you get involved in your child’s school, they are more likely to do well in school? Joining in with school activities has so many benefits. Your child gets to see how much you value their school, you model community involvement, you learn new things and meet new people, and the school and students benefit from your involvement. We have two great ways to get involved this month!
Our first PAC meeting of 2019 will be coming on on Monday, January 21 from 7:00-8:00 pm in the multipurpose room.

We’d love to see you there!
