Good bye January! :) 

A note for outside at lunch, students are not to be on the snowbank across from the staff parking, closest to Chris Saunders. Too much rough play and staff are not able to see you. All students need to keep their hands and feet to self while outside at lunch. Playing in the snow is fun, be no physical contact.

More and more hearts going up in the main lobby each day! How do you get a heart to Show the Love to the fabulous staff of QMS? Families can donate on Cashless Schools and for every $2 that is donated, the student will receive a paper heart on which they can write the name of a staff member who they would like to celebrate during Staff Appreciation week in February. Deadline to donate is Wednesday, Feb 5^th. All donations will help QMS Connections to spoil our staff members with a delicious meal and other treats and surprises during Staff Appreciation week!

Ski and Snowboard team! If you have any photos that you have taken at Poley, please send them to Mme Spinks. We would love to have some for the yearbook and for the monitor. They can be action shots from the hill, chair lift selfies (don’t drop your phone!), or hanging in the lodge pics.
