Hello Somerset Families!
What a spooktacular Halloween celebration! Our gym was filled with creative costumes, Halloween music, movement, and laughter during our annual Halloween PE activities! A heartfelt thank you to our School Council and volunteers for helping make this fun-filled experience possible for our students.
Here are your Weekly Updates for the Week of November 2nd, 2026
REMEMBRANCE DAY | VETERANS FOOD BANK DONATIONS
As we prepare to recognize Remembrance Day, Somerset School is collecting food donations for the Veterans Food Bank. Families who are able to contribute are invited to send non-perishable food items to school. Thank you for showing kindness and helping support veterans and their families.
CHANGING WEATHER | DRESS WARMLY & STAY SAFE ❄️
As temperatures change and wet snow arrives, sidewalks, pathways, and playground surfaces can become slippery.
Here are a few friendly reminders:
Dress for the weather:
- Warm layers, jackets, gloves, and appropriate footwear help students stay comfortable outdoors.
- Keep a change of clothes in your student's backpack, in case they do get wet.
Watch your step:
- Wet snow and ice can make walking surfaces slippery.
Take your time:
- Encourage children to walk carefully, especially near entrances, sidewalks, and playground areas.
