On Wednesday, November 9th and Thursday, November 10th, our Twos classes will be dismissed at 11:00am for Parent Teacher Conferences.  There will be no After Care for Twos on these days.  All classes in our Threes through Kindergarten will be dismissed at 12:00pm.  For these classes, there are a limited number of spaces available for After Care. If you would like to use our After Care program on either of these two days, please complete and return the form that was sent home with your child last week.  Children must be registered users of our Extended Care program to participate and all regular Extended Care fees will apply.  If your child is not currently registered for Extended Care, registration forms can be found here.  Please be sure to provide your child with lunch and snack if your child is staying on either of these two days.

In the upcoming weeks, we will host three informational coffees to help our current Landmark families learn more about the next step in their child's academic journey.  During these coffees, head teachers will be on hand to discuss curriculum and answer any questions you may have.  Families will then have an opportunity to tour the classrooms.  Times and dates are below; please note that these coffees are for our current Landmark families.  Families who are interested in joining the Landmark community should contact Kim McElderry for more information on our upcoming Open Houses.

No Fun for Ones November 3rd

There will be an LPA Meeting on November 21st at 9:15am in the Media Room.  Please join us, children are always welcome!

In 2009 a group of kids and their parents came up with an idea of combining their passion for LEGO^® and their desire to help children who were affected by cancer.  Why not challenge themselves to build difficult LEGO^® projects and ask donors to pledge to support their building efforts. Furthermore, they could create an exposition where they could showcase their masterpieces, unite with fellow LEGO^® maniacs while raising  money to support the work of CancerCare. This grassroots effort of creative and dedicated children raised approximately $150,000.00 and entertained over 3,000 people on a magical Saturday last November.

This year, children and their parents will once again participate in this creative act of compassion, and Landmark will help by collecting new and gently used Legos for this project.  If your family would like to participate, you can drop off your donations in the office beginning Monday, October 31st through Monday, November 14th.  For more information on Blocks of Love, you can visit their website here.
