Aberfoyle PS

Thank you, Aberfoyle Public School, for hosting a fantastic spring carnival! Special thanks to our crews at Puslinch Fire and Rescue Service for spreading vital fire safety awareness. "If there is a fire in your home, GET OUT AND STAY OUT." #firesafety #homefireescapeplan

We have a winner! Congratulations @AberfoylePS grade 4! During the 2023 Waterloo Wellington Children's Groundwater Festival students became Groundwater Detectives. They completed all the clues and submitted their findings to participate in our draw. @ugdsb @wellingtncounty #wwcgf

It was lovely to host Firefighters Jessica and Brad from the Puslinch Fire Department @AberfoylePS @ugdsb yesterday! The duo were Mystery Readers and so much more! We really appreciate the time they took to read and teach us about fire safety. This community rocks!

Big thanks to Cambridge Animal Services for picking up @AberfoylePS batty pal. I’m sure they will find a comfy spot for them in a tree or sheltered spot and they will be back to munching mosquitoes in the spring!

This special little critter decided to join us @AberfoylePS school today! Found loitering in the bathroom. Maybe that’s where all the cool kids ‘hang’ out? Seems batty to me.

Lunch Study Group for gr 7/8 was very popular today @AberfoylePS . Are these young leaders extra studious because they are academically challenged or did the chilly weather help to influence their positive work ethic? Either way, everyone is welcome!

Hey @AberfoylePS families! Do you have neighbours with a child who needs to be registered for Kindergarten? Remind them to register! You know how great this school is! Spread the word! 👍😊 Everyone is welcome!

@AberfoylePS Hey Grade 8 Gators! This is a great chance to introduced to a great school!

I love this bulletin board @AberfoylePS @ugdsb celebrating our beautiful diversity and asking important questions. Students are proud of who they are, promote their differences and shout out their love of their individual identities. 👍😊

@AberfoylePS @ugdsb At the end of our day all the educators lined up to wave goodbye to the students as they left on their buses for the Winter Holidays. It was beautiful to see students waving and calling to their teachers. What a lovely tradition!

@AberfoylePS @ugdsb hosted a Holiday Bake Sale this morning! Many thanks to parents who donated tasty treats, to members of the School Council for organizing, and to our Mentor Club members who volunteered their time to help. It was awesome!

Holiday circuits. The grade 6 students @AberfoylePS @ugdsb created this interactive bulletin board to show off their electrical knowledge. It’s very popular with everyone who passes by. It’s so fun to touch the batteries together to brighten things up!

Amazing contributions from our community! Our foyer is also full of donations going to the @guelphfoodbank . Thank you Aberfoyle!

One of the many joys of being a Vice Principal is being a guest at the Kindergarten Friendship party! Lots of fun planned by expert educators helped the @AberfoylePS @ugdsb Kindie students get to know each other even better. I loved the treat surveys, songs, cards and jokes!

@AberfoylePS @ugdsb was treated to a wonderful concert by the @CCVISpartans band and choir today. Not only was the music outstanding but these role models provided an example of what is possible with practice and support. Thanks Spartans!

I noticed this beautiful butterfly today @AberfoylePS @ugdsb . Even though Truth and Reconciliation Week was a bit ago, the orange shines bright and our messages remain true.

Movie Night was a big success @AberfoylePS! Over 100 movie enthusiasts tucked themselves into the gym for a cosy evening. Pillows, blankets and snacks filled the room, along with the happy sounds of children. Big thanks to our School council for a wonderful, family event!

@AberfoylePS @ugdsb Hey Gators! It’s Pink Shirt Day tomorrow. Let’s show the world that we are Upstanders who say NO to Bullying!
