The WellSpring Private School

Dear Parents,

Our annual MOE inspection last week went well, and the team commented on significant improvement in nearly all areas of the school, which is encouraging. We will get further feedback from the inspection team in a few weeks and will share the highlights here.

This week our KG2 to Grade 10 students took their third and final round of MAP tests for the year. It’s been inspiring to hear their chatter in the hallways as they discuss how their scores have increased or decreased since the last round. Taking ownership of their own growth is an important part of their learning journey.

We have a packed calendar with upcoming Fine Arts Festivals, exams, promotions and celebrations. Please keep up to date with all the events shared both here and on Canvas.

Our EC and Lower Elementary classes are helping us count down to the last day of school with the Z-A countdown. Today we are on letter ‘V’. 😊

Enjoy the weeks’ highlights by following the link at the end of the newsletter.
