Dear GCS Grade 6 Families,
Thank you for your patience as we returned from a week of school cancellation due to the storm.
In math class we had our first test this week and continued on with our study of measures. Students also had the opportunity to start their 3D design this week in class! We even managed to make some time to print some designs.
Planting Kindness
As we approach Thanksgiving, GCS classes are working on projects to bless members of our community through giving or service. The Grade 6 class will be collecting items to provide a coffee break for healthcare workers at the Cancer Treatment Centre at Queen Elizabeth Hosptial. We will be collecting boxes of tea, instant coffee sachets, and boxes of Keurig cups to bring to a unit at QEH. We have collected some items so far and will continue to collect next week. Thank you for helping us bless our community!
Knights Harvest
Grace Christian School has established deep roots in the Island’s educational landscape over the past 43 years, impacting the lives of many students, families, and our greater community. We have continued to flourish as a private Christian school, thanks in part to the generosity of our stakeholders.
Your gifts help us expand our current programs and develop new programs and services to support our growing student body. Your gifts allow us to expand and improve our infrastructure, purchase modern curriculum and extracurricular resources, and most importantly, help stabilize our bursary fund to ensure that every student meeting our entrance requirements has access to an exceptional 21st century, Christ-centered education.
This thanksgiving season, we will celebrate the countless blessings God has showered on Grace Christian School with The Knight’s Harvest: A Celebration of Thankfulness. It is our prayer that GCS families, friends, and community supporters will demonstrate their thankfulness for Grace Christian School with a financial gift this Thanksgiving season. Together, we can empower future generations of Knights, so they can impact others for the glory of God!
