TMC Parents and Guardians,
Welcome back from Spring break. This week winter decided to pay us another visit, but the weather looks like it is going to start to turn the corner next week and our students will get to spend more time outdoors during PE (knock on wood). As the spring months come, it is a busy time of the year that seems to go quite fast in the CBE for students and staff. The staff at TMC are making plans on how we wrap up the school year: finishing the curriculum in their classes, preparing students for PATs, organizing year end field trips and like all schools starting to plan for the next school year (staffing, bussing, creating timetables). It is both an exciting and busy time of the year.
In addition, Mrs. Craig is away on short term leave. We have sub coverage for her classes.

Fundraising Opportunities
The grade 8 sailing students are selling rain barrels as part of their fundraising for the SEAs Trip. You can order through Rainbarrel.ca. Look for "TMC sail trip 2025" on the ordering page. You can apply for a $50 rebate from the city but there are a limited number of rebates offered. The sooner you order the better your chances.
Sailing students are also organizing a 50/50 draw, the draw went live on April 1 and will run until April 25. Website for details: https://www.rafflebox.ca/raffle/tmc
