A note about the Remembrance Day Assembly on Monday November 10th:

We will perform a song with divison 8. The assembly begins at 10:45. 

We would appreciate if students were dressed in a white top and black bottom (pants, skirt, leggings). 

We sure enjoyed our trip to Westham Island Herb Farm and Pumpkin Patch.

Thanks to all the parents who were able to come. What a muddy field it was! 

This Week Oct 27th - Oct 31st

Halloween Information
On Friday 31st, children are invited to wear a costume in the afternoon for the parade at school. We are encouraging the children to go home for lunch that day to change, if possible. I would appreciate a couple of parent-volunteers straight after lunch to help those children who cannot go home for lunch to dress in their costumes. 

To help celebrate in a healthy way, please let me know if you can bring a plate of fruit for this afternoon. We we also accept a dish of cookies or other sweet treat. I will accept the first two offers. Please do not send in other treats or candies. We will talk about healthy eating in our lunches the following week. Please do not add Halloween treats to their snacks and lunches. We are having a lot of success with the setting up of nutritious eating routines at school.

This Week - Oct 20th - 23

Families,

It was great to meet with you last week during parent-teacher interviews. Please feel free to talk with me after-school, call for an appointment or send me an email to discuss your questions or concerns. Also don't hesitate to let me know if your child has something he/she might like to share with me or with the class.

Thanks for bringing boots to school. The indoor/outdoor shoe system really helps save our carpets and ensures that your child is comfortable and dry in school. Occasionally we do stay inside during lunch (due to rain) as it is a school wide decision. On those days I will be taking students for a break outside in the undercover area.

There are still a few families that have not handed in their Pumpkin Patch field trip forms. If you think you could be available to drive that would be great as it looks like we are in need of a few more drivers.

This week we will begin our preparations for the Remembrance Day Assembly. We have an art project and we are learning a new song. We have quite a colourful collection of owls living it up in our new bulletion board in the hallway. We will read and try to answer the questions raised last week about owls. I have included these questions at the bottom of this page.

Where do owls live?

What are baby owls called?

When was the first owl born?

I want to know more about the skeletons I saw (in the owl song).

**Also you might like to share the owl song:

go to youtube and search "owl song by the whizpops"

also search "owl babies by martin waddell"

This week - Oct 14 - 17

The rainy weather is upon us! Please make sure your son or daughter has clothing appropriate for outdoor play during light rainy weather.  I am expecting that students have both indoor and outdoor shoes for school. Indoor shoes should be runners that can also be worn for gym. Boots are necessary if your child would like to play in the grassy areas at recess and lunch. If you don't already have a baggie packed with a change of clothes, this week would be a great time to get organized. Thanks!
