November 7/18

Hi Everyone,

I hope you all enjoy your extra long weekend!  We have been spending some time talking about Remembrance Day with a focus on Peace.  We made a wreath out of hearts and hands and discussed how peace begins in our hearts but we need to put that feeling into action.  At the end we added some seeds to show our wish for peace to grow.  This will be put in place at the assembly tomorrow.

Updates/Reminders/Thank you's

*donations (big or small) are gratefully accepted for the veterans.  Poppies will be distributed just before the assembly tomorrow

*school spirit week is fast approaching:
Monday Nov 19 - School Colours Day
Tuesday Nov 20 - Hat Day (Leadership will also be planning a Bake Sale for this day)
Wednesday Nov 21 - Twin Day
Thursday Nov 22 - 80's Day (chosen leadership students will be at WE Day)
Friday Nov 23 - PJ Day

*each child in the class will be having a 'sleep over' with Fin.  Your child will then draw a picture and write about their time with Fin with a focus on being socially responsible.  There is a letter at the front of the duotang with more information.  Please ensure that Fin is returned to the school each day as the next child on the list will be waiting for a turn.  If your night is busy and your child needs more time to complete the homework, please feel free to take a sheet out of the duotang which can be completed/handed in at a later date.  Thank you!

*please sign up for the parent conferences at the end of the month if you have not already done so. You can do this via the parent portal.  Please note:  You will only sign up for one 15 minute slot but you will stay here for 30 minutes.  The first 15 minutes is for you and your child to celebrate their work in the hallway, the last 15 minutes will be spent conferencing together.  For example:  If you sign up for the 2:00-2:15 time slot, you will come at 2:00 but stay until 2:30.  Please come and see me if you need further clarification.

*you will be getting a portal announcement soon with one fee attached ($16).  This is for four separate guests/activities which are outlined in the announcement.

*please see the photo below for information about the upcoming play, 'Mamma Mia' which features our very own... SOPHIA!!  Break a leg, Sophia :)

Thank you,

Amanda Roberts
