Hi folks!

Skating: We are going skating tomorrow, Wednesday, January 22, 2024!!!!   We will be leaving the school at approximately 9:30am.  Our actual ice time will be from 10-10:30 @LBA.  Students must have skates and a helmet.  Students can bring their skates and helmet to school with them in the morning or if you want to meet your child at the rink with their skates and helmet to help tie skates that would be awesome!!  Many hands make for light work. You are more than welcome to join! Boots and other footwear are not permitted on the ice at any time.

Weather: Students are reminded to DRESS WARMLY (Mittens/gloves, warm coat, snow pants).  It is a District policy that all students wear proper skating helmets, not bicycle helmets. For safety reasons, students must wear skates and a helmet, or they will not be permitted on the ice.  

Scholastic:  If you want to order something for them, you can go to https://bookclubs.scholastic.ca/ to place the order. Our class code RC198054.  When you use this code it builds points for our class and we can order free books for our class. I will submit the order tomorrow at 2:30.

Science: I am also asking for a few items to be sent in by Thursday, January 23, 2025 of this week for us to complete our science experiments. If you could please send in an aluminum/tin foil pie plate and either 2 small potatoes or one large potato per child it would be greatly appreciated.  Please send in as soon as possible as we need these items for Thursday, January 23, 2025.

Signed items: I sent home some items to be signed and returned on Friday. Please take a peek in your child's homework folder.

Solo Speech: Solo Speech forms are going home today for those interested. They are due back to the school on or before Friday, January 31st, along with the money. Totally optional! Students memorize a poem or speech to deliver in front of peers and at the Music Festival. They do not have to be memorized for Jan 31st, just picked out and planned!
