This day also encourages us to learn more about Indigenous perspectives, traditions, and experiences, helping all students grow their understanding, respect, and appreciation for the diversity that strengthens our community. Importantly, it is a time to reflect on the impacts of the past, and to commit to building a future grounded in respect, inclusion, and reconciliation. By recognizing this day, we support meaningful learning, foster empathy, and help create a more inclusive and informed school community.</span></p><p class="editor-paragraph"><br></p><h3 class="editor-heading-h3"><u><b><strong class="editor-text-bold editor-text-underline" style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Loughborough Kindergarten Open House</strong></b></u><img src="/images/c072d8b9-1b78-44a3-abdc-aeebefd325c6?fingerprint=ppb20260601161145" alt="Kinder open house 2026" width="100%" height="inherit" style="width:100%;height:inherit;display:inline-block"></h3><p class="editor-paragraph"><br></p><h3 class="editor-heading-h3" style="text-align: left;"><u><b><strong class="editor-text-bold editor-text-underline" style="white-space: pre-wrap;">Tick Checks</strong></b></u></h3><p class="editor-paragraph" style="text-align: start;"><img src="https://cdn.smore.com/u/thumbs/fd20/thumb-4e8d9e6a7dd3dd7e3c9d24ef30430826.jpeg" alt="" width="275" height="183" style="border:0px solid rgb(204, 204, 204);boxSizing:border-box;-TwBorderSpacingX:0;-TwBorderSpacingY:0;-TwTranslateX:0;-TwTranslateY:0;-TwRotate:0;-TwSkewX:0;-TwSkewY:0;-TwScaleX:1;-TwScaleY:1;-TwScrollSnapStrictness:proximity;-TwRingOffsetWidth:0px;-TwRingOffsetColor:#fff;-TwRingColor:rgba(49,190,200,.5);-TwRingOffsetShadow:0 0 #0000;-TwRingShadow:0 0 #0000;-TwShadow:0 0 #0000;-TwShadowColored:0 0 #0000;display:block;verticalAlign:middle;height:183px;maxWidth:100%;maxHeight:100%;borderRadius:0.25rem;backgroundColor:transparent;objectFit:contain;width:275px"><a href="https://cdn.smore.com/u/fd20/4e8d9e6a7dd3dd7e3c9d24ef30430826.jpeg" title="Expand" class="editor-link"></a><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;">With the nicer weather, classes will be spending more time outside and participating in outdoor field trips.
