Friday Housekeeping on Thursday

22/10/2015

 
Picture
Early next week we will have a brief discussion about what Team Awesome can expect next Friday, Oct. 30 and I had better share the details with you before you get a 5 year old's version (which I am sure would include tons of treats in their lunch and a new puppy each). Traditionally Halloween has been Orange and Black Day at BEST but we have added the opportunity to dress up in Halloween costumes as well. The children are welcome to wear their costumes throughout the day but no weapons, masks or gore are allowed. Please note that if your child wears their costume all day it probably will not come home in the same shape it came to school in. Please label all costume pieces with names and refrain from sending little bits and pieces/accessories as they are difficult to keep track of. Various Halloween activities will take place throughout Friday, including a Halloween safety review discussion (Cst. Sofie will be giving us the 'official' one on Thursday) and rotating stations in mixed K-3 groups between recess and lunch and a dance in the gym for part of the afternoon. Fun fun fun!!
Please refrain from sending more than 1 Halloween treat to school each day with your child in November.
  • Aeverie shared a tiny rubber ball, Bentley had a bunch  of keys on a lanyard, and Theo is excited about his tiny blue man.
  • Monday, Oct. 26 is our field trip to the pumpkin patch and the children will choose a pumpkin to bring back to the school but must be able to carry it on their own. On Tuesday, Oct. 27 we will carve the pumpkins with the grade sixes.
  • It will be cold on our trip Monday morning so please send hats, mitts and a warm coat.
  • October 26 is Drop Everything And Read Day and BEST will be joining the rest of the schools in SD 73 by reading at 1:00.
  • The last Wednesday of each month is Pink Shirt Day and a spirit assembly so that will be Oct. 28.
  • Our RCMP liaison officer, Sofie Winkels, will give us a Halloween safety presentation the morning of Thursday, Oct. 29.
  • We will participate in Halloween activities Friday, Oct. 30 and Team Awesome is welcome to wear their costumes.
  • If you have not yet paid school fees, they are due at the office.
  • Kindergarten Survey 2015-2016 forms went home last week and should be returned if you  have not done so already.
  • The kids are reading lots of Take Home books! I try to do them as often as possible but due to our schedule or random chaos, sometimes it doesn't happen that day.
  • In case you missed it last week, I wanted to make you aware that Team Awesome will be skating on Jan. 28, Feb. 11 and Mar. 3. We do have skates available for the children to borrow at the school but they are limited in sizes and about a kijillion years old so not terribly comfortable. You might want to keep your eyes open for a good used pair if you don't already have some. Helmets will be mandatory.
Go forth and Be Awesome!
