October 24/19

Hi Everyone,

I hope you all enjoy a wonderful long weekend!

Updates/Reminders/Thank you's

*Halloween is fast approaching.  We will be having our party in the afternoon on October 31st.  Students should arrive at school in costume, we will be having a school wide costume parade in the gym that morning.  Recess and lunch will be outside, as usual so costumes should be easy to slip on/off or should be okay to be worn outside.  Please note:  Students should bring snacks and a lunch as usual as we will not be eating until late in the day.

Here is the list of people who have signed up to bring snacks:

Natalie (fruit plate)
Noah (veggie plate)
Tristan (cheese and crackers)
Navien (sweet treat)
Ekan (popcorn or chips)
Jack (juice boxes)

*Your child will be bringing home an extra book in their planner bag sometime over the next week.  It will have a post-it inside to indicate that this is a book that your child should practice nightly until they are confident.  Your child will be presenting this book (along with their group) to the class.
*Just a reminder to please check the date of your child's 'Great Canadian' so that they are ready to present on their special day.  Thank you!
*Art cards/order forms were sent home early this week.  I changed the date on the card to indicate the correct date.  All orders are due by NOVEMBER 1st
*A big thank you to Noah's family for sending in the extra balls/equipment for the class.  It is being used/enjoyed daily.
*The grade 6/7 classes are having a 'Day of Silence'.  The are gratefully accepting donations from October 24-26th for women/children in need.
*skating is tomorrow, please send in a booster seat for your child.  Thank you!
*Friday is a Professional Development Day, there is no school for students.

Have a great weekend, everyone.
