🐾 Principal’s Message
Welcome to Friday. I hope you are sitting at home or somewhere warm and safe. It certainly feels like winter has decided to make another appearance.
On Wednesday, our school proudly recognized Pink Shirt Day. A special thank you to our PM Kindergarten students and our EES classes who hosted a wonderful assembly focused on the importance and meaning behind Pink Shirt Day. They reminded all of us that kindness, inclusion, and standing up for one another matter every single day. It was powerful to see so much pink throughout the building and to hear the thoughtful conversations that continued in classrooms afterward. Pink Shirt Day is not just a single event. It reflects the culture we are intentionally building together at PHS.
Last week, our teachers had the opportunity to work alongside an Indigenous Knowledge Keeper. Learning directly from Indigenous voices deepens our understanding and strengthens our commitment to truth and reconciliation in authentic and relational ways. This learning will continue with our students on March 3 and 4 as they participate in circle teaching and drumming. These experiences help build community, strengthen listening skills, and foster respect for one another’s stories and traditions.
Last night, our School Council hosted a fantastic Grades K to 2 movie night. With popcorn, glow sticks, and pizza, it was the perfect family night out. It was wonderful to see so many families gathered in our gym. A big thank you to School Council and all the volunteers who made the evening such a success.
Grades 3 to 5 families, your movie night is coming soon. Stay tuned for details.
As always, thank you for being part of such a caring and connected school community.

🚗 Safe and Respectful Parking Reminder
As we continue working to improve traffic flow during drop-off and pick-up, we appreciate the efforts families are already making to keep things safe and organized.
We have received a few concerns from neighbors about vehicles blocking or partially blocking residential driveways. Even brief stops can prevent residents from entering or leaving their homes.
Please help us maintain positive relationships in our community by:
• Parking in designated areas only
• Not using the staff parking lot
• Avoiding stopping in front of or across driveways
• Following all posted signs
Thank you for your patience and cooperation as we work together to keep our students safe and our neighborhood respected.
- Mrs. Law
