Happy October 2nd! Where did September go? Fall is here, and the weather is definitely cooler. It felt like we went from summer to fall over night! Speaking of weather ... if you haven't already done so, please send a pair of running shoes for your child to keep at school as his/her 'indoor shoes'.
Some Thank You's:
Trip to Safety Village
We had a great day at Safety Village, and we learned a lot about burn prevention, what to do in case of a fire, and community helpers like firefighters and police officers. We posted some photos from the trip outside our classroom.
One of the reasons for the success of our trip were the parent and grandparent volunteers who were able to accompany us. Thank you all very much for your help and support. You helped us have a great day!
We had a great turnout on Thursday night for our school's curriculum night. The children appeared to have a great time, and hopefully, they were able to show you some of the things/activities that they like to do during the day. We also hope that you left with a better idea about what your child does during the day at school.
As you may already know, the Kindergarten curriculum was very recently revised. In fact, we just received our hard copies of the curriculum a couple of weeks ago. If you are interested in reading the curriculum, here is a link to the Ministry of Education's site: Kindergarten Curriculum 2016
Terry Fox Walk - Sept. 30th
On Friday, our school held its 6th annual Terry Fox Walk/Run in support of the Terry Fox Foundation. We set a goal of raising $1000, and we surpassed our goal. Our school raised almost $1200! If you were able to make a donation, thank you very much! If you haven't already done so, you may still make a donation online at: Donations for Terry Fox Foundation.
Last, but not least ...
If your family is celebrating Rosh Hashanah, we would like to wish you all a Happy New Year!
