School Communication Overview

Weekly e-mails to the parent community

Northlea Home & School maintains a global list of parent e-mail addresses and uses them to distribute important information to our parent community on a weekly basis. These updates are also available on this website. Check your inbox at the end of each week for the latest school information.

What’s Happening

In an effort to reduce the amount of paper going home, all parents will receive the Northlea School newsletter “What’s Happening” via email every second Friday. Email lists will be compiled at the beginning of the year by the class parents from the information you complete on the Permission to Contact Form. If email is unavailable, a hard copy will be sent home with the youngest child in each family.  Hard copies are always available in the hallway outside the Office.

The newsletter contains important information on school activities and a calendar of events. This is sometimes the only communication of some activities. Please read it so you don’t miss anything.

Northlea News

In an attempt to keep families informed of some of the more specific school happenings, activities and safety concerns, a newsletter will be sent to all families typically on the last Friday of the month.

Similar to the “What’s Happening”, we will be sending the newsletter via email where possible and in hard copy where email is not convenient. A personal touch from the Administrative Team will hopefully provide you with an opportunity to dialogue with your child about school and/or give you an opportunity to stay informed.
