Important Information

1.  Wednesday, October 30^th is going to be ORANGE day!!!  If your child has orange clothing to wear that is great (please don’t buy anything new).  Also, if you have naturally orange snacks that you would like to send in, please feel free!!

2. Our Run for Funds school fundraiser is now underway!!  This is the only school based fundraiser that we do during the year (all other fundraising is from the parent council).  The money that is collected helps to support school events, special presentations, field trips and recess equipment for the students.  We would appreciate any fundraising that you could do and ask that all the forms and money be returned by Thursday, November 7^th.  At that time, all money will be counted and students will receive their prize/s.  For every $50 raised, the student will receive a ticket for a prize of their choice (please see list sent home on the yellow paper).  If anyone raises $150, they can throw a pie in a teacher’s face (a teacher of their choice)!!!  If there are further questions, please don’t hesitate to email us and we will clarify.  Thanks again so much for your support of Lakewood School!!

3. Halloween is fast approaching!!!  In the morning, both classes will be gathering together for a combined Halloween centre party!  In order for this party to be successful, we require many volunteers to help run the centres.  Although having a criminal check completed is an asset, it is not required for this event.  If you are able to help us by running a centre on Thursday, October 31^st from 8:45 – 11:25, or are willing to send in a healthy snack, please sign the bottom of this form! 

Have a great weekend!!
