WEEKLY UPDATE FROM LIMEHOUSE PUBLIC SCHOOL
September 12, 2025
Kindness, Gratitude and a Growth Mindset
Dear Limehouse Families,
Meet the Teacher Night:
Thursday, September 25 from 6-7 pm is Limehouse Meet the Teacher night. We will all begin in the gym with a few words of welcome from Mr Jones and then children can take their parents/guardians to their classroom to meet the teacher and have a look at our classrooms. We are excited to bring this to you after a couple of years of pandemic regulations.
2025-2026 School Year - Lunch Supervisors and Transportation Supervisors
Limehouse PS is urgently looking for a morning transportation Supervisor. The role is quite simple; greet students as they disembark buses and ensure they make it up the stairs. Also greet students who are dropped off by car and ensure they make it up the stairs. The role is from 7:45 to 8:45 daily and is a paid position.
Limehouse is looking to add names to our list of on-call Lunch and Transportation Supervisors.

Help 300 HDSB Students Start School with Confidence by Sept. 30
Some students in our community walked into school last week without a backpack, supplies, or even lunch. The Halton Learning Foundation (HLF), thanks to our donors, is here to help.
Since the beginning of this school year, HLF has supported more than 126 students across our HDSB schools, including 70 students in the past two days alone, with emergency help and school supplies.
HLF’s goal is to help 300 students by September 30, but with only a few weeks left, they are asking our generous community to step in urgently, to make sure they can continue to say “YES” to every request for emergency support they receive.
Here's what one parent shared last week about what saying “YES” meant to her family:
"Just wanted to say how grateful I am for this support. I’m a single mom, and because of your help, I’m able to get what my daughter needs for back-to-school and food, and I’m so unbelievably grateful for the support."
Make a gift for a student in need today: Donate Now
Together, we can give students not just supplies, but confidence, dignity, and hope.
