Tomorrow is our field trip! We are off to see Dr. Seussical the Musical! Please make sure your child has a substantial lunch and snack for this day. We will eat "Brunch" around our regular snack time (10:00 am) before we board the buses (10:45 am). When we return to the school, around 1:45, the students will have their snack before recess. The children will be dismissed at their regular dismissal time.
If you are volunteering for the field trip, please arrive at the school by 10:30.

Alien in-line skating also begins this week. If your child has a bike, hockey/skating or snowboarding helmet, please send it, labeled with their name, with your child by Thursday.

On Friday, the cast from Dr. Seussical the Musical is visiting the school. Students will have an opportunity to ask questions of the cast members. We will brainstorm some questions to ask the actors. After the performance on Tuesday, ask your child to tell you about it.

There will be spelling words on Monday and Wednesday (not Tuesday due to Dr. Seussical), with our spelling test on Friday.

On Monday, December 13th, we will have our first annual Artisan Fair. This event runs from 6pm until 8 pm. You are welcome to come and go at any time. Items for purchase range from baked goods to Holiday ornaments to student made books and calendars. We hope you will come and support our fair as all proceeds will go towards the Alberta Children's Hospital and new books for our library!
