Important Information
1) BACK TO SCHOOL NIGHT
A reminder that back to school night starts at 5:30pm in the gym with a general session. Childcare will be at the playground starting at 5:15pm. Please don’t bring your children to the gym- our EAs will be providing childcare. In case of poor weather, we will send out our rainy day plan.
2) UNITED DAY
Our United Day this month is for Terry Fox Foundation. Students are invited to dress down in a Terry Fox t-shirt (if you own one) or anything that is comfortable for walking. Our students will be walking on school property only. All proceeds from our collection will go to support the foundation. Please bring a small donation, and an extra $1 for popcorn. Some parents have arranged to have their collections for the whole year done through EFT, so they do not need to bring any money. We have a record of which students have already paid. Terry Fox’s niece will be leading an assembly for us at 1:00pm.
3) ATHLETICS
a) We would like to invite you to our Cross Country Meet on the school grounds. We will be starting at 1:00pm on Thursday, September 18th. If you are available to watch and cheer for the athletes it would help make the experience of the run more exciting. There will be a spot on the field near the fence for spectators to watch. The athletes' classes will also be invited to cheer. The event will begin with a welcome and opening prayer at 1pm. At 1:10pm the Gr. 2s will run, then the 3s @1:20pm, 4s @1:35pm, 5s @1:50pm, and 6s+7s @2:10pm.
Sincerely,
Coaches Pistrin, Schneider and Klaponski

7) CHRISTMAS CONCERT!
Calling All Parent Volunteers for Our Christmas Play 🎄✨
As we prepare for this year’s Christmas production, we’re looking for parents who may be eager to share their time and talents. Whether it’s painting sets, crafting props, sewing costumes, or offering other creative skills, your help can make a huge difference in bringing our play to life.
We know many of our families have unique gifts and abilities we may not even be aware of, and this is a wonderful way to contribute while also earning volunteer participation hours.
If you’re interested in helping out, please contact Mrs. Cheryl Hosein — we’d love to hear from you! Thank you!
