Hope everyone had a great weekend!

We only have nine school days left meaning that we are busy getting things done in the classroom like our social project, our math unit on addition and subtraction (test next week), and a piece of descriptive writing in ELA.

With the days getting colder and it getting closer to Christmas, we want to make sure all your children kick off the holiday season energetic and healthy! So please make sure you are sending your child to school with a winter jacket. Lots of kids are coming to school in hoodies. Also, there is a flu going around, so if you're child is sick just give the school a call so we know why they're absent.

Last week we had our first bookstore event for the reading program that we started awhile ago. It was a great success and the kids had fun. Several didn't get to participate because they didn't do any reading or story maps to redeem tickets. I think it has motivated some to kick it into high gear which was great to see as well. We are starting it again after Christmas. It would be greatly appreciated if you have any old toys or books that are suitable for a grade four if they could be donated towards our reading program!

A new week at a glance has been posted as well.

Have a good week,
Mrs. Stefan

Hi all!

Hope everyone enjoyed the long weekend! This month is going to fly by and before you know it Christmas holidays will be here. With that being said, on the last day of school there will be a hot dog hot lunch. Each student can have up to two hotdogs for free and then any additional hot dogs will be $1. The school newsletter will now be online only. Paper copies will only be going out to Kindergartens and Grade Ones. At the back of the newsletter is the hot dog hot lunch form. Print off the form and check off how many hot dogs your child would like and send in the money for any additional ones. I will print off some forms too, as some kids have mentioned they don't have a printer at home or it's not working etc.

Also, check out the new At A Glance for school happenings and a big thank you goes out to those who have donated money for the playground fundraiser!

That's all for now,
Mrs. Stefan
