  • Daddy and Me Gym Night

    Great turnout for Daddy and Me Gym Night tonight.  SD 60 is pleased to provide this event to our community.  We love to promote playful learning and honour the role dads play in the lives of children.  It also gets kids and dads active which if you hadn’t noticed is my current soapbox.  It was a great time.  Join us next month!
