Dear Parents,
Thank
you all of you for the incredible turnout last night for our Advent celebration
at the Hillcrest Apostolic Church. We are
extremely proud of our students. They were
great role models for the rest of the students there and we are sure that they
will continue doing so. Thank you for
the support you show us at school. Our
students are growing towards a more positive direction every day. We feel that
has everything to do with the communication we have with you and how we all work
together for the children.
I just sent a “remind”
text with this message yesterday and I am in emailing it as well as I
didn't want anyone to miss the message. Each child in the class will be
participating in our Advent Celebration Weeks 3 & 4 in the gym on Monday,
December 14 @ 8:45. The celebration sheet is on the blog in case your child
forgets his/her copy at school. If your child will not be here on
December 14th, please let us know right away.
** I do
not want to harp on this gift exchange too much, but I need to know if you are
unable to send a gift for the gift exchange next Friday. If your child is
female, send a female or neutral gift,
if he is male send a male/neutral gift. If
you cannot send one, please send a message ASAP, so I can go out and pick
something up as we want everyone to receive a gift Friday morning.**
Your child will also tell
you that we have decided to have a pot luck lunch on Thursday, December 17 at
noon in the lab. There are some children who have already volunteered to bring
gluten free/egg free food. Please check with your child to see if he/she was
one of those students. We are suggesting
they bring food that is a tradition in your family or that is from your family’s
culture/background. The students are
studying this in French, English and Social Studies, so we thought we would go
one step further. PLEASE
REMEMBER THAT NOTHING YOU SEND TO SCHOOL CAN HAVE ANY TYPES OF NUTS.
The school is hosting a
talent show that Friday afternoon. If your child auditioned and made the
list, they should be practicing for that as well. Please make sure that
they have all their props/music they need for that afternoon.
*** As you may or may not
know, we are the juice/milk recyclers for our school. This is a smelly job, but
it does have some perks. As a treat for
doing all this work for our school, I am buying our students in our classroom
KFC for lunch on December 15. Please send a juice and snacks as usual
that day as I will not be providing that.***
There are still some people having issues with finding
the dictée/spelling tests on the blog.
Once you are on the blog go to September on the right side of the
page. Click on it. Scroll down to find
English or French Language Arts. Click on it. Scroll down until you find the
date you are looking for. This should take you to the list you are looking for.
If you still have trouble, please come in and see us and we will be more than
happy to help you.
Hot lunch forms are due
today. If you have any at home and you
still want to order, please let me know via email and I will send it in today
and you can send the money tomorrow.
This is the hot lunch for Friday, December 18th.
We are still having dictée and spelling tests this week and next week. Please have your child explain which spelling strategies they are working on this week. They should be studying this at least 10-15 minutes per night along with their multiplication and division facts.

We do have many things going on in the last week of
school. It is going to be busy and tiring all at the same time. We would like this week to run as smooth as
possible, so please let us know if there are any concerns.
