Roden School Council has established a group of classroom representatives as part of its effort to engage parents and build community. Class Reps play an important role in improving the lines of communication within the classroom and school, thereby having a positive effect on our children and the school community.
We’re looking for a parent to represent each class to act as the liaison between parents, classrooms and the school council. Possible duties of the Classroom Reps include:
– Sharing ideas and concerns from parents to the School Council through the Volunteer Coordinator and providing council information feedback to parents
– Helping share information about school events and volunteer opportunities for the classroom
– Coordinating a classroom email/contact list to facilitate the sharing of information with parents
– Helping welcome new parents to the community
To find out more or to sign up to be your child’s classroom rep, contact volunteers@roden.ca.
A reminder that the Roden.ca website was developed to keep your family connected to school.
Here’s what you’ll find here:
• Important dates for school (Picture day, report cards, PA days)
• School newsletters (Wondering if you missed one? Check the Backpack tab)
• Ways YOU can help (Can you spare some potatoes for Breakfast Club?)
• School council meeting minutes
• TDSB committee updates
• Lunch ideas from other parents (Share your lunch secrets too please!)
For this month only, you will be receiving a printed version of our emailed newsletter along with a Roden.ca magnet to remind you to check the website regularly. If there’s specific information you’d like to see on the site, by all means, tell us (communications@roden.ca). After all, the website is for you!
Remember, to sign up for the monthly newsletter, click on the link “Signup for the newsletter” in the sidebar to the right and then follow the instructions.
We’re all desperate for new and healthy lunchbox ideas that our kids might actually eat, so please SHARE YOUR BEST ONES with us and we’ll share them with everyone!
Email your healthy snack and lunch ideas to healthykids@roden.ca or jot down your idea and drop it in the School Council mailbox, located in the office.
Find fresh lunch box ideas online at Roden.ca!
