CHRISTMAS CONCERT
Our Christmas Concert is coming up quickly.  The children have been practising their songs and Mr. B. has been very busy bee too!
The concert is on THURSDAY, DECEMBER 14
It is being held at the Caboto Centre
The children are asked to be there at 5:45 pm and need to be dropped off at at the door of the smaller side room with the teachers.  (They will not be allowed into this room before 5:45.) 
The concert begins at 6:30. 
Please dress your child in "nice Christmas clothes". 
Don't forget to bring shoes and your violins.

The parents are being asked to bring some "dainties" to share.  Please bring your dainties to school on the Thursday morning of the concert day.  Thank you.

CHRISTMAS CHEER BOARD HAMPERS
Every year our school puts together hampers for the Christmas Cheer Board.  Each class makes up one hamper for one family. Your child will be bringing home a note with a few food items listed.  If you are able, please bring these food items to school over the next 2 weeks.  There will be a sign up sheet if you are interested in buying a present for the children in the family.  We will also need a family to volunteer and deliver the hamper to the family @ Friday, December 15. 
Thank you all for helping us make someone's Christmas a little more merry!

CLASS CHRISTMAS PARTY
Our class Christmas Party will be held on the last day of school, Friday, December 22 in the afternoon. 
These are the Snack Parents for this party: Dylan, Harmony, Jayden, Mrs. Petkau
