SUPER BINGO
Many thanks to the Bingo Team and all who helped with Super Bingo. All of your hard work provided a fun day for everyone. All proceeds from Bingo go directly to the school. A profit of over $4,000 was realized. We look forward to the next Super Bingo in the Spring. Thanks also to all of those who came to play Bingo—without you, super Bingo would not have been such a success.
BOX TOPS FOR EDUCATION
Keep those Box Tops coming! The efforts of everyone that collected the Box Tops certainly paid off. The school will receive $724.40 and it’s only November. Just think what we can collect by the end of the school year! These profits also benefit your children directly.
THANKS FOR YOUR SUPPORT IN ALL THE FUND RAISERS!!!
PANCAKE BREAKFAST/CHRISTMAS BAZAAR & CRAFT FAIR – NOV. 20TH
Join us for a delicious pancake breakfast and great Christmas ideas. Tickets will be sold ahead of time through the school. If you buy your tickets through school, your child(ren) will earn an out of uniform pass (date to be announced later).
MEDICINE
No one on the school staff is allowed to dispense medicine of any kind to the children, even if you send a note. DO NOT SEND PRESCRIPTION OR OVER THE COUNTER MEDICATION TO SCHOOL WITH YOUR CHILDREN. THEY WILL NOT BE ABLE TO TAKE IT.
PHONE MESSAGES FROM SCHOOL
When the school calls your phone and leaves a message, please listen to the message before you instantly call the school back. It will save time.
DRESS FOR WEATHER
We will have recess unless the weather is really inclement so children need to dress appropriately.
