WEEKLY UPDATE FROM LIMEHOUSE PUBLIC SCHOOL
March 21, 2025
Kindness, Gratitude and a Growth Mindset
Dear Limehouse Families,
Earth Hour - This weekend!
Earth Hour is a global event to raise awareness about climate change. The movement encourages individuals, businesses and governments around the world to take positive actions for the environment, and celebrate their commitment to the planet by switching off their lights for one designated hour. Earth Hour takes place on Saturday, March 22nd from 8:30-9:30 PM and we ask you to consider participating this year by turning off your lights at your residence and place of business. Let’s show the world that Limehouse is an earth friendly community!

World Water Day and the Great Gulp
On Friday, March 28th we will be doing the Great Gulp for World Water Day.
Please send your student with a reusable water bottle so they can participate in this fun and educational event. We will also be combining this initiative with Earth Hour here at Limehouse where we will turn off our lights and electronics and then head outside to the forest. Please ensure your child comes to school dressed appropriately for the weather on Friday.
Halton Hills Film Festival Coming to Limehouse!
The film screened at Limehouse is the 2016 Canadian animated children's film Ballerina. It is featured as part of National Canadian Film Day's Canadian Film Collection. Here is a description of the film, the trailer, film rating, and details about the cast and crew. https://canfilmday.ca/film/ballerina/
This is a Free of Charge community event of the Halton Hills Public Library and all community members are invited. Only children accompanied by a parent or guardian may attend. Limehouse PS Staff will not be supervising unattended children.
If you would like to meet your child at school at 3:00 pm, doors open at that time. Please let us know in advance that you would like your child to NOT ride the bus home and we will divert them from the bus lines.
SpongeBob the Musical!
For our theatre visit this year we will be going to MIlton Performing Arts Centre in May to see Spongebob the Musical. This will be a no cost trip because we have had a successful fundraising year of Pizza Lunches. More details to follow!
