The next two weeks will be busy

Dear Parents,

We will be having a Valentine's party next week. Students are invited to wear pj's or onesies and to bring a stuffie. Snacks are welcome. We would love the loan of a boombox and CDs as the wifi reception in the room is not ideal. Someone also suggested they would bring a pinata (which I am okay with, if it happens, and also okay, if it does not). Several parents have also asked if students can bring in pets: this came up during our brainstorming session, but unfortunately, no. Stuffies will have to suffice.

If students bring Valentines, they need to ensure they are not excluding students, and bring one for the entire class. I can provide a list of first names. ***See bottom of post***

Next week is very busy. Here's a break down for you:

1. Monday is the 100th day of school. Themed "100 day" activities are planned, but there will not be a party.

2. Tuesday is "Sharing Music from Home" day in Music.

3. On Wednesday, reports will go home.


4. Thursday we will also have a school performance from Red Sky Productions (which introduces students to some of the issues in reconciliation) in the afternoon.

5. Thursday is also Valentine's Day, as outlined above.

6. On Thursday and Friday, report card interviews will occur.I prefer to meet with all parents every term where possible. I can also set up phone interviews if regular interview times do not work for your family. You can sign up online for your preferred slot. Here are the links:

Please feel free to email, if you have difficulty booking.

7. Upcoming events: February 21 is our class trip. I still need parent volunteers.

8. Upcoming events: February 25 is our habitat project due date. Please let me know if more information or resources are needed.

Please let me know if there's anything else I may have forgotten.

Thanks and regards,

Ms. Goegan
