Halloween Reminders
Don't forget that our Halloween festivities will be held on Thursday, October 29! We will start with a costume parade at 12:30 followed by pumpkin decorating and snacks in our classroom at 1:00. An assembly featuring a storyteller will end our afternoon celebration.
Students will be changing into costumes in classrooms designated for boys or girls. Please understand that students will not be able to visit the washrooms for changing or application of make-up.
Please remember that students need to gather and bring items for decorating the pumpkins donated by our PTO. Some materials may be provided by parents helping with the celebration, but it is asked that students provide their own materials as well. Keep in mind that no sharp objects or carving utensils will be allowed. Be creative - you never know what everyday items in your home could help create the most amazing pumpkins!
Subject Update:
- Spelling - Due to our Halloween festivities and no school on Friday, we will not have a spelling lesson this week.
