That’s a wrap on this year’s #SEY2K project 🤗 What a wonderful evening welcoming families into the school to play, eat together, connect with community partners, meet school staff & build relationships with neighbours! #sd38learn.
Families connect w/ school, community and each other @mcneelyelem SEY2KT Kinder Community Night🫶🏼Connecting w/ a child's school before kindergarten is crucial! It helps families build relationships, gain a sense of belonging and ease the transition for all involved🩷@sd38elcc
