Visual Arts Enrichment
Classroom Workshops & Gallery Walks
This spring, the Parent Council was thrilled to present over 24 in-class visual arts workshops tailored for Kindergarten to Grade 4 students. To celebrate their creativity, we invite families to enjoy their masterpieces during gallery walks in conjunction with their Spring concerts.
On the day of the concerts, be sure to visit the breezeway to immerse yourself in their talent!
Volunteers are needed for setup and teardown. Contact us at runnymedeart@gmail.com to lend a hand.
P.S. Exciting news: More workshops are scheduled for Grade 8 students in June! Yay!

School council currently has reached out to all committees, and currently we have no volunteers who are able to take on the job of organizing the annual Teacher Appreciation Lunch. This is a huge undertaking each year, and all committee volunteers are at full capacity and unable to Lead another event.

Runnymede Welcome Garden
Many of you will have seen the beautiful new flowers, plants and memorial plaque placed at the entrance of Runnymede to commemorate former Runnymede Principal, Bob Davidson and teacher Anna Heninger-Ochocinski.
This was all made possible through a generous contribution from our very own Mme Kling.
Mr. Davidson hired many current and former Runnymede teachers including Mme Kling, Mme Bedard, Ms. Visconti, Mme Nitsis, Ms. Javor and Mr. Hallman-Chong.
Special thanks also go to the Admin & office staff for their assistance with selecting the stone,
Ryan Lockhart and the Green Team for helping to organize the project and for continuing to make the front garden look beautiful!
More plants to come, so keep your eyes peeled!
