WEEKLY UPDATE FROM LIMEHOUSE PUBLIC SCHOOL
May 30, 2025
Kindness, Gratitude and a Growth Mindset
Dear Limehouse Families,
Can you believe that we are starting the month of June!
Junglesport Returning to Limehouse!
Thanks to our fundraising efforts at Santa Breakfast, Dance-aThon and our grant from Halton Learning Foundation, Junglesport Inc. climbing and adventure programs are coming back to our school! Junglesport has run programs in schools across Ontario and Quebec for 20 years, serving over 100,000 participants every year. Their programs have been designed to benefit students of all ages, abilities, and needs.
The philosophy behind their programs is S.A.F.E. – Safe, Active, Fun, Educational.
Junglesport sets up its climbing jungle gym in our school gymnasium and two qualified Junglesport instructors guide the students through a range of climbing and ropes course activities. There is always one teacher per class present in the gymnasium as well.
Junglesport supplies all the safety equipment required for all activities and each student is provided with a helmet and where appropriate, a harness. The helmets are constructed of a material that does not harbor lice and are cleaned on a regular basis. All Junglesport activities follow strict safety rules.
Some of the activities on offer are: Wall Climbing; Traversing; Low Ropes; Ascending & Descending Static Lines; Obstacle Courses; Cable Ride and Gorilla Gym! The activities take place on the Junglesport structure in the safety and security of the school gymnasium.
Students will have the opportunity to try different activities, learn new skills, achieve success and increase self-awareness. To find out more information about Junglesport please visit their website www.junglesport.ca or facebook.com/JungleSport.
All students will have the opportunity to participate every day that week and there is also a parent engagement evening planned for Wednesday June 25th where you and your children can experience Junglesport! Stay tuned for more information coming soon.
Bike it to the Market Saturday June 14th 2025 8am to noon
