Hello. We are up to 9 students in our Google Classroom and hopefully a few more later today! As of Monday, April 6 we will need everyone in as the second phase of Learn at Home will officially begin.
Here are a few details from the Ministry and the Board:
- Kindergarten to Grade Three: 5 hours of work per student per week
- focus is on literacy, math, and religion
- teacher-led instruction/engagement: lessons given/posted 2 times/week
- teacher-led support/engagement: available 3 times/week (there will be scheduled time)
More information will come as we try this out on Monday. I believe all forms of communication will then be on Google Classroom. This is new to all of us and it is definitely not the ideal situation, but we will go slow and take it step by step.
Thank you to the parents who have checked in, read all the info, followed the instructions and signed up their child. I really appreciate your assistance and cooperation. We are definitely going to need to work together in all of this.
Stay safe and take care.
Mrs. Pillon

UPDATE - THURS. APR. 2
We now have 7 students who have joined our Google Classroom!!! Let's keep going! I will be emailing parents whose child has not signed up yet, so hopefully we can have everyone in by Monday. Instructions are posted under Tuesday's blog.
Here is information posted on the Holy Name Blog and Facebook page today:
Our teachers have been hard at work establishing online platforms for learning. Teachers in JK/SK and SK/1 will be using the SeeSaw application, and all other teachers will be delivering curriculum using the Google Classroom. Your child has received a code to access the Google Classroom in their Gmail Inbox. Your help is needed to ensure that your child has accessed that code and is connected to their online classroom.
STUDENTS IN GRADES 1-3: need to set up their Google account and password. Below is the step by step instructions on how to do this. If you are experiencing difficulty, please send an email to your child’s teacher by entering firstname_lastname@wecdsb.on.

WED. APR. 1
Hello! I am so happy to see that 2 students have joined our Google Classroom! If you could please pass on the information to other families I would really appreciate it. Please tell them to check the Classroom Blog for important and updated information.
I hope that you have read the letter put out yesterday by Stephen Lecce. This gives some idea of what you are to expect with respect to Continuous Learning. This is going to be new and challenging for all of us, but we will figure it out together. I have attached a link for the letter below.
