Ballet Trip Friday and Extra Socks

We have our trip to the ballet tomorrow! We will be leaving promptly at 11:40 am and returning around 2:30 pm. Students will eat lunch before leaving and will eat when we return as well. They are asked to bring a slightly larger lunch or some extra snacks so they can have plenty to eat before and after the trip. We will not be bringing food on the trip since the show runs from 12:30 to 2:00 pm.

Also, with the changing temperatures, it is a good idea to pack extra socks and mitts with your child. Thanks.

Portfolios, Bully Awareness Week, Looking for One Volunteer :)

Student portfolios went home today - with most students. Students did not receive their portfolio if they have work that is still being completed or caught up on. We have had a lot of illnesses the past two weeks! These portfolios will go home next week. :)

Please take some time to go through the work with your child and complete and sign the first page in the binder. Please return the binder, with the work still in it, anytime next week. If there are any questions, please let me know.

Next week is Bullying Awareness week and we have a number or activities in the school planned. Please take some time to discuss this important subject with your child.

Finally, we are still in need of ONE more volunteer for our Scientists in School workshop on Thursday November 22. If you have your police check and are able to volunteer on Thursday from 9:00 - 12:05, please let me know.

Thanks and have a great (snowy) weekend.
