“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good; his love endures forever”-1 Chronicles 16:34. At OLS, we observe a tradition called the Thanksgiving Chair, where students take the time to reflect and give thanks to God for their many blessings. Our students said they are most thankful for friends and family, reminding us of the importance of those closest to us. This Thanksgiving, we wish that your blessings be bountiful and your holiday weekend be filled with joy and warmth.

Today we hosted our annual Terry Fox run, surrounded by messages of hope, love and inspiration. Please consider making a donation by sending in a toonie with your child, or making an online donation at https://schools.terryfox.ca/31019/donate
