District Track and Field

Next week Thursday is our Chatham Christian Schools District Track and Field Meet. Our school will be closed. One bus will be traveling to Windsor to take the athletes. It promises, if past experience is a guide, an interesting day. If parents wish to come along, please phone the school. If parents wish to drive, directions will be sent home; if you are taking your student(s), please let the school know.

International Programme

John Knox Christian School has enrolled two young Korean students for a second year at our school. Many students from overseas choose Ontario as a good place to learn English as a second language. We are pleased to offer this service and make it available to other families considering this option. It is a wonderful opportunity for student growth - that is, for both visiting students and the host students. For more information, please contact Mr. Boersma at the school
