Celebrations
We would like to say Happy Lunar New Year to all families that celebrate! Our kindergarten classes treated us to a dragon dance this week and shared some of their learning about Lunar New Year and the year of the snake.
At Janet Johnstone, we are always excited to learn from our diverse families. Diversity makes us stronger! Here is a link to CBE's calendar of significant events: Calendar . If you would like to share information about your family's celebration, please email your child's teacher.
