We hope you had a wonderful weekend!
Parent/Teacher Interviews: Staff are looking forward to meeting the parents/guardians this week to discuss student progress -successes and areas of need during parent teacher interviews. If you have not yet had a chance to book an interview, please contact your child’s teacher. We encourage all parents to meet with their child’s teacher as communication focused on supporting our students is important as we are partners in education.
Fundraising change: The gr 8 fundraising committee will not be doing Dielemans as a fundraiser this season due to the timelines. More information will be shared regarding future fundraisers. If you would like to join the committee, please reach out to the committee Chair Nia James at niacrjames@gmail.com.
Bake sale: We will be looking at doing some bake sales again as a grade 8 fundraiser in the New Year. We are also doing a community bake sale at our Winter Holiday Concert on Tuesday, December 17th at 6:00-6:30 before the evening concert. Any parents who are interested in sending in baked items are asked to ensure they are NUT FREE and that the ingredients are provided on a card/paper for the items made. Please label your container if you would like it returned. Any remaining items may be sold the next day. Pre-packaged cookies that are nut free will also be sold. All items will be sold for $2 as this is a fundraiser for our Gr 8 graduation.
