May 10/18

Hi Everyone,

Happy Mother's Day to all of you moms!  I hope you all enjoy your weekend and are properly spoiled :)!

Updates/Reminders/Thank you's

*the leadership group has requested that we collect 4L milk jugs (not 2 litre as previously requested).  They will just be filled up half way for the primary students.  Please rinse the jugs well with soapy water before sending them in. Thank you!

*Our 'Walk for Water' is next Friday, May 18th.  Students should have comfortable walking shoes and be dressed for the weather.  Donations (loonies or twoonies are great) will be accepted up until this date.  Thank you! Money collected will be donated to Haiti and we will be watching some informational videos provided by Mrs. Valouche so that students understand how fortunate we are to have fresh water just by turning on the tap! :)

*thank you to Dyllan's mom for organizing our Scholastic book orders this year;  the last one went out earlier this week and is due Friday, May 25th

*the 'Mystery Bags' will be exchanged next Wednesday, please ensure that your child has their bag so that they can make a trade

*the PAC has added 2 treat days this month-May 15th and 16th.  All treats will be $1-$2

*Memory book and Grouse Mountain field trip money can be paid online or sent to school (cash or cheque made out to Fairview Elementary)

*Week 12 is a review week in spelling so we will continue next week and our final spelling quiz will be tomorrow!  

*just a reminder that I coach running club on Tuesdays and Thursdays.  Students who are not picked up at bell time will meet you at the office as I need to get to practice.

*Thank you to the parents who have volunteered to come on our Grouse Mountain field trip:  Mrs. Dhembi, Mrs. Krenbrink, Mrs. McMhuirich, Mrs. Kriel and Mrs. Musinovic.  We now have our maximum number of volunteers.

Have a great weekend, everyone!
