The Community Room is just beyond the office at the front of the school. Little ones are welcome, with space to roam and play.

Join Us for Michaelmas Friday, September 26th

We welcome our community to attend our Michaelmas celebration for the Grades (1-12) on the afternoon of Friday, September 26th from 1-3pm. This celebration includes our beloved Michaelmas play, performed by Grades 2 & 4, as well as other class sharings.

Families are also invited to stay and partake of our Michaelmas feast, which will include dragon bread and honey butter, apples, and veggies. The specific timing and logistics for this event will be shared soon! A head's up that we will be asking the community for contributions of dragon bread and baked bread loaves for our feast. If you love to bake or have a favorite bakery, be on the lookout for that sign-up!

Not sure what Michaelmas is? Check out this blog post, which explains more.

Want to learn our school's Michaelmas songs? The CWS Community Singers have recorded many favorites here. Singing along with your kiddos in the car or at home can be super fun!

No microwave available!

There is no longer a microwave available for grades students. Hot foods need to be pre-heated at home and sent in a thermos.

Thank you!
