We are excited to bring to the St. Philip's School Community something new this year just in time for Easter!

St. Philip School Council brings to you the RICHMOND NURSERY FUNDRAISER. Please support this new fundraiser by purchasing your spring planters or hanging baskets just in time for Mother's day. We will be launching this on School Cash in the coming days with the pick up of the flowers to be in early May.

New sensory hallways!!

The St. Philip School Council was excited to partner with the school to provide two sensory hallways for students. This is a great initiative that helps students with self-regulation, and provides a calming activity when they need a body break to help them succeed in their learning. This new "Road to Regulation" was introduced to students at the Mindfulness Monday session last week.
