Report cards will be going home with all students on Wednesday, December 8. Please remember to return the envelope and green slip of paper (signed and dated) to your classroom teacher before Christmas break.

Festive Christmas Dress Up Day

With the current weather, it feels like the perfect time to warm up with hot chocolate! Grade 5 will have a hot chocolate and cookies/snack fundraiser this Friday, December 10, during after-school pick up. The cost will be $2 for hot cocoa and snack.  The event is a Grade 5 fundraiser to help cover the costs associated with their year end celebrations in June.  Please come and support our grade 5s!

Schola Bohemia services will be offering an Arts & Crafts Christmas Break Camp 8:00 am – 6:00 pm from Monday to Thursday, December 20 – 23.  Cost is $180 per student.  To register contact Rita Langrova at 604-220-4250.

It’s time to clear off your bookshelves! The grade 5 classes will be collecting old books from Tuesday, November 30 until December 10 as a part of a sustainability service project. They will be accepting outdated and damaged books that will be sent to a recycling facility, as well as donatable books for our school library and little libraries around Port Coquitlam. If you have any books you’ve been meaning to get rid of, or books you’ve been meaning to donate, now is the perfect time! Kindergarten and grade 1 students can drop their books in a box outside the office. Grade 2-5 students will be collecting books in their classrooms. 

Do you love to read? Do you work full time and like volunteer jobs you can do from home? If yes, then this is the volunteer opportunity for you! Reading Link is in need of 6-12 volunteers to help create quiz style questions for our weekly meetings. Your child does not have to be in Reading Link in order to help, and you can expect to earn 8-12 volunteer hours. Mastery of the English language is required. More information will be provided to those that are interested. Please email Kristin Le Ross (kleross@hopelcs.ca) if you’d like to volunteer. 

We are excited to open up our chapel times to our parents.  During our first service, 9:00 – 9:30 am (Grade 3-5), we have 10 spots available.  At our second service, 9:35 – 10:05 am (Grade K-2), we have 5 spots open.  Please note that on a week where a particular class is presenting, these spots will only be available for the class parents, so they may have the opportunity to watch their child.

Registering to attend either Chapel will only be accepted using the links below.  

Links will close once the maximum number of registrants is reached.

Grade 3 – 5 Chapel (9:00 – 9:30 am)

Kindergarten – Grade 2 Chapel (9:35 – 10:05 am)

You are invited and welcome to join other parents and our school administration to pray (even if you’ve never prayed before!). Please consider setting aside 30 minutes of your time at the beginning of each week to join us for Parent Prayer as we pray for our school, families, and community. 

We will be meeting outside at the elementary Campus by the main entrance. 

Every Monday from 9:00 – 9:30 am (except for holidays).
