Loving God,
We give you thanks and praise for all you have done for us.
We thank you for the splendour and beauty of creation,
for the wonder of life,
and for the blessings of being loved and loving others.
Open our hearts to your Spirit and to one another
so that we continue to grow in faith, hope, and love.
We ask this, through Christ our Lord,
Amen
You are warmly invited to gather with our school community as we give thanks for our many blessings at our annual Thanksgiving Liturgy.
Date: Wednesday, October 14th
Time: 1:00 PM
Location: Gym, Hosted by Grade 3
We look forward to praying, celebrating, and sharing in this special time of gratitude together. Parents, guardians, and extended family members are all welcome to attend!
On Wednesday, October 28th, all grade 3-6 students will attend the Ottawa 67s game against the Kingston Frontenacs at TD Place Lansdowne. The cost for each student to attend the game is $27. Any parent who wishes to attend the game as well may do so at a cost of $27 for each adult. All payments can be made at https://ocsb.schoolcashonline.com. starting on Monday October 5th.
Parents who join us for the game will chaperon a small group of students, and they must accompany students on the bus, both to and from the arena. Students, teachers and parents will leave shortly after morning announcements, at approximately 9:30 am, to prepare for the 10:30 am puck drop. Students will return to school immediately after the game via buses in the early afternoon. All students are encouraged to bring their lunch and snacks to the arena.
Permission forms, which will be sent home on Monday, must be returned to school no later than Tuesday, October 14th. Also, please fully complete both sides of the Board’s Parent/Guardian Permission Form and return it to your child’s homeroom teacher. Unfortunately, we cannot adjust numbers after our October 14th deadline.
All parent volunteers must be on the school's Volunteer List. Please see this link for information on how to apply to volunteer for any school within the OCSB. When applying, please specify that you want to volunteer with St. Luke(Nepean). We will require several parent volunteers to help make the day run smoothly. If you have questions not answered by the link, please email volunteers@ocsb.ca.
