Here are a few updates:
You should have received instructions today on how to book on-line for a Parent-Teacher Interview on November 23 or 24. I am also still taking bookings for ANYTIME on November 14 and some on November 22, these just have to be booked personally. Let me know if you have any questions! If you do not feel the need for an interview at this time please let me know ASAP.
We have Pajama and Teddy Bear Day coming up! Please send ONE special stuffy on that day and your child can wear pajamas to school! We are going to have so much fun!
Remembrance Day Assembly
Our Remembrance Day Assembly will take place this Wednesday from 10:30am-11:00am. Parents are welcome to attend this assembly, (as are students from the afternoon class if they are accompanied by parents). However, if you are bringing small siblings, please be aware of the somber nature of this event. If all morning parents could take a minute at home to talk to their children about the importance of this assembly I would greatly appreciate it!
If your child belongs to Brownies, Cubs etc. they are welcome to wear their uniforms to school on Wednesday.
Christmas Concert Information
I received some information about the Christmas concert at our last staff meeting:
Each family will be given 2 tickets to the evening Christmas concert. Siblings DO need a ticket. If a family requires extra tickets (meant for families with step parents etc.) , they must put this request in writing to Paul Bryant. There is a dress rehearsal earlier in the day, for grandparents and other family members that do NOT have a ticket for the evening performance.
Christmas Concert Timeline:
DECEMBER 15:
10:15am-11:45am: Dress Rehersal for STUDENTS ONLY. Afternoon students are encouraged to attend if it is feasible. I know this will make things tricky for lunch, but please know if you have to take your children home for lunch and they come back late, this is certainly OK. This is a very special day.
1:00pm-2:30pm: Dress Rehearsal for anyone without a ticket for the evening performance. Morning students are encouraged to attend if it is feasible. Parents will need to be there to take their children home once the rehearsal is over.
6:00pm: Performers are to arrive at the side entrance of Southminister United Church. Parents then go to the front entrance with their tickets.
6:30pm-7:45pm: Christmas Concert!
Just a reminder that I will be away November 17 and 21. Sherese Speelman will be in for me and is SO excited to be with our classes again!
We are collecting clean, empty, 2L milk cartons from now until further notice so if you use these at home we would sure appreciate them!
