Happy Friday, MAS families!  It was a busy but great week here at
McAdam Avenue with lots happening already!  We started Cross Country
practices with any interested students in grades 3-5, library classes began, we
had school pictures taken, we got a start on our Diversity library which
supports one of our School Improvement goals and participated in an amazing Becca
Schofield Day assembly!  I have attached some pictures for you to see.

Indigo store that we have been partnered with in Oakville, Ontario will be
donated to McAdam Avenue to help update the school library. Here’s
the link to donate and to share with family and friends: https://indigoloveofreadingfoundation.givecloud.co/fundraisers/mcadam-avenue-school-fredericton-new-brunswick
