Dear PS Families,
We are ready for a short week and PS is excited to celebrate Thanksgiving with CNG's dedicated workers. Please note that Wednesday will be a half day, and gate passes will be issued, but bus passes will not. Wishing you a happy, restful, and safe Thanksgiving break! Thank you for your endless support these past months. May this time bring you peace, joy, and unforgettable moments with your loved ones.
Happy Thanksgiving!

New CNG Counseling Padlet
The CNG Counseling Team is excited to announce the launch of the new Counseling Padlet, designed to improve communication and support for parents. This online platform will serve as a hub for important resources, student education, parent workshops/universities, updates, and helpful information related to your child’s well-being and emotional growth. The Primary School-specific counseling padlet is permanently located at the bottom of the Key Contacts section on the right. Whether you're looking for tips on supporting your child's mental health, accessing counseling services, or staying informed about school initiatives, this invaluable tool will keep you connected and empowered. Visit regularly for new content and to stay in the loop!

Lollipops and Sports Equipment
This is a friendly reminder that for safety reasons students are not allowed to bring lollipops or suckers to school. Toys and keychains are also not allowed, but sports equipment is. Please remind your Children that they are responsible for this equipment, not the teacher.
