April 3, 2017 Spring is Here!

Reminder:  Family Dance this Friday!

The Annual Family Spring Dance & Fundraiser is this Friday night at the school from 6 pm to 8:30 pm.  Event tickets are per family and will be $10 at the door.  If you are bringing a cake for the wildly popular ‘cake walk’, please email our parent volunteer, Shannon King, at shannonking@shaw.ca .  To date, Shannon only has ten confirmed cakes or desserts.  Our theme is Canada’s 150th birthday.   Also, there’s still time to bring in a themed gift for your child’s homeroom’s gift basket that will be raffled off during the evening.  We ask that these items (or cash to purchase items) be brought to school by this Wednesday so volunteers can put these gift baskets together on Thursday.  Finally, we need more volunteers to help with various tasks such as raffle ticket shifts and working shifts at the cake walk.  Please look for the sign-up sheet on the School Council bulletin board located in the front foyer of the school, or contact our parent volunteer organizing this annual event, Amy Remmer at amywater@gmail.com. From your School Council This Wednesday, April 5, the 'Clay Lady' is coming to Kindergarten! From 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM your child will be learning how to create a clay project. Please ensure that your child does not wear their best or favorite clothes and that they arrive at school on time. It's so very exciting to read with your child! Everyone, is really improving on their ability to read first letter sounds and sight words. Thank-you very much, for supporting this worth while initiative. Next Tuesday, April 11 is our turn to provide the treats for 'Treat Day'. Please watch for a communication from Amy, for details about this classroom fundraiser.
