Hi Everyone,

We are having a great time learning about bats in Division 8.  Together we have come up with many 'wonders' about bats and we have already discovered the answers to many of our questions.  Ask your children about echolocation and what else they have discovered about bats so far.  I think you will be impressed!  I have been!

Updates/Reminders

*you will now have received 2 field trip emails, please sign your child up via the parent portal, we apologize for the late notice on the field trip next Wednesday, October 26th but we were just given this exciting opportunity to meet/hear about the writing process from a local children's book author. We passed on the information to you as soon as we were given the offer. If there are not enough drivers we will cancel but hopefully we can make this happen despite the late notice.
*drivers are needed for both field trips, thank you in advance for your help with this
*October 28 the leadership group would like to do a 'colour block' dress up day.  Students can choose their favourite colour and dress head to toe in that colour :)
*our Halloween party will be Monday, October 31st.  Students may wear costumes on that day, we will be taking part in a costume parade in the gym with the rest of the school.  Students will be going out to play at recess breaks (unless it is extreme weather), please send an easy to take on/off costume or rain boots and rain coats to protect costumes.  We will have party snacks in the afternoon but students should still bring their lunch/a snack for earlier in the day.
Thank you in advance to the following people for sending snacks on October 31st:

Max (fruit plate),
Marcus (veggie plate)
Cheese/Crackers (or small sandwiches)  (Jesse)
Sweet Treat (Rachel)
Popcorn/Pretzels or Chips (Chloe)
Other (Collette)

Please remember that we do have a severe peanut allergy in our classroom and send peanut free food for sharing.  Thank you!
