SSSG Notes September 5,  2019

In This Issue:







Hello all,

Welcome back to all of our existing and new SSSG families.  I hope your summer was full of rest & adventure & that you are excited about the upcoming SSSG year.

Please know that private lessons commence the week of September 9 & the first group class is on Saturday, September 14.  A gentle reminder to know that the GYMC is a shared space hence, please encourage your child to avoid loud, boisterous play while inside the centre. 

Warmly,
