Advent/ Christmas Wreaths
Once again we are offering fresh Fraser Fir Wreaths for the Advent/Christmas season. The wreaths are provided from Drysdale’s Tree Farm at the low price of $20.00. Profits from the sale will support our Snack Program. Order forms have been sent home and are due by Friday, November 2nd. You will be able to pick up your wreaths during the parent/teacher conferences on November 15th & 16th.

Outdoor Weather Conditions
Please ensure that your children are dressed appropriately for the weather as the temperatures outdoors grow colder. Snow pants, hats, warm boots and mittens are essential as the students are outside for up to forty minutes during lunch recess. Please be advised that during cold spells we will monitor the appropriateness of the students being outside.  Our general rule of thumb, provided by the Health Unit, is that during cold weather periods, if the temperature is -25 C or colder, or the wind chill factor is -28 C or below the students will remain inside. We also ask parents to take some time to label all clothing, especially large-ticket items such as jackets, so we can return them to their rightful owners when they are misplaced and forgotten in the yard.
