FALL SUPPER                                                                                                                  

Thank you to all of the families who helped out at the Fall Supper and Auction this past weekend.  It was fun, delicious and very well attended.  I’m sure that PIP raised quite a lot of money for the new playground!

REMEMBRANCE DAY                                                                                                     

Our Remembrance Day Service at school will be held on Thursday, November 8 at 11:00 am.  The entire school will be meeting in the chapel area for a short service.   Parents are always welcome to join us.

REPORT CARDS                                                                                                         

Our first term’s report cards will be sent home next Thursday, November 15.  The sign-up sheets for Student-led Conferences are already posted on the front hall bulletin board, across from the office.  There is space for four families to sign-up in each time period.  The students will be leading the conferences and sharing their learning portfolios with their families.

SOCIAL STUDIES                                                                                                                     

We are beginning a new social studies unit called “Our Community”.  We will be working on a project in a few weeks and will need smallish cardboard boxes and recyclables (cereal, granola bars, paper towel tubes, etc…). Can you please start saving some of your recycling packages for us now?  I will let you know when they are needed at school.  Thanks!
