First Day of School!

(Note that in order help them transition to Runnymede in smaller groups, junior kindergarten students start in waves – if your letter from the school said to start on the 7th, then your first day is, in fact, tomorrow.)

Welcome back, Runnymede! All the best for a great start to the new school year.

Today also marks the official launch of our new Council website! We’ve been building and testing throughout the summer, but we are always open to comments and suggestions – so please leave yours in the comments field below. We hope you find this to be a valuable resource.
