2. The weather is changing and we have seen our first snowfall!!!  We ask that all children come to school wearing a hat and mittens.  Students who do not have these essential outdoor items will not be able to go outside during recess.  Thanks for helping us keep all our students happy and warm!!

3. We are still looking for volunteers for our Halloween party.  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 31st from 8:45 – 11:25, please sign the bottom of this form!  Thanks to everyone who has signed up for snacks, please bring enough for 20 students.  We are going to have lots of yummy food!!!


Have a great weekend!!
