Dear Fieldstone Community,
Fieldstone students are busy with classes, competitions, co-curriculars, and event preparations! Despite the vibrant, teeming activity, they remain focused, hopeful, and calm, thanks to the attentive guidance of our teachers. We are so grateful to our teachers for their excellent planning and dedication to the success of their students in every manner of engagement.
Fieldstone students have started submitting their entries for the Queen’s Commonwealth Essay Competition, currently being reviewed by Mrs. Haddad and Ms. Carey. Our gifted young writers have written thoughtful pieces on the topics presented. In Math club, Ms. Sharma is busy preparing our Grades Six & Seven students for the CEMC’s Gauss Mathematics Contest. In sports, soccer fever is at its height, with ongoing trials to select teams for the upcoming SSAF (Small School Athletics Federation) soccer tournament. Through Mr. Makubuya’s able guidance and training, our young soccer players have been developing their skills in a spirit of fair play and sportsmanship. More than thirty students showed up for trials on the first day, and we saw some incredible talent on display. We are confident the Fieldstone U10, U12, and Elementary Soccer Teams will be brilliant!
Please mark your calendars for an exciting morning event coming up: Fieldstone Track & Field Day! On Friday, May 19, our students will compete in individual and relay races for medals and house points! Also included: a Parents’ Race and a Teachers’ Race! Please take a few moments to complete the RSVP form HERE for this promising outdoor event. Let’s hope the skies are clear!
We look forward to seeing you Sous le Ceil de Paris (Under the Sky of Paris) – Fieldstone’s French Night event. Our students have been working hard practising their French performances under the very creative and artistic eye of Madame Lechallier. All JK to G7 students are required to be in their homeroom by 5:30 p.m. If you would like your child(ren) to stay at school from 3:30 to 5:30, please let us know and e-transfer $20 per child to our Bursar, Ms. Monica Park, at [email protected]. This cost will cover their aftercare fee and a light dinner.
Until next week, stay safe and have a wonderful weekend.
Sincerely,
Shumaila Khan
Head of School

Character Counts! Pins Programme
Character building is important at Fieldstone, where we truly believe that character counts. The Character Counts! programme has found that there are at least six values that should be taught to all children. These are known as the “Six Pillars of Character”. Fieldstone students work diligently towards earning their Character Pins (photos on the right). We are very proud of them! Several students have been working diligently on their Character pins! You can find out more about the Character Counts Pin Programme HERE. If your child would like to participate in this wonderful programme, please ask your child to see Ms. Butcher.
