Hello Jaguar Families, 

Are You Moving?

We are already busy planning for the 2026-2027 school year, and would really appreciate it if families could let us know if your child(ren) will not be returning to Juniper for the coming school year.  Please phone the office as soon as possible to let us know. It really helps with our planning and class placements.

Lacrosse - Girls With Goals Female Only Camp
This August, we are hosting a one-day Girls With Goals Female Only Camp featuring Erica Evans. Open to girls of all skill levels, the camp is a fun opportunity to try lacrosse and build confidence through sport. Please share this opportunity with principals throughout the Kamloops school district for distribution to interested students and families. Participants will need a helmet with a face cage, hockey or lacrosse gloves, a lacrosse stick, and running shoes. Thank you for your support.

Library 

Please return ALL library books by Tuesday, June 9th. 

We would like to get everything shelved before we box up the books in anticipation of our new wooden shelves being installed. 

Thank you for your help with this.
