September 22/17

We have a field trip to Maple Ridge Public Library for a special author visit on Friday, Oct. 13th in the morning.  We will be using public transit so will need parent helpers to walk and accompany us on the bus.  The field trip notice will go out next week.    Hopefully you have also marked Oct. 24th in the afternoon on your calendars for skating.

We have a PEANUT ONLY allergy!   Almonds and tree nuts are okay.

Thanks to everyone who confirmed their email, I will send out another email today and if everyone who didn't have a chance to reply please do so asap - that way I know I have your current email address.  Thanks

Scholastic orders I will extend as several students said they had orders - last day is Tuesday.  Thanks (please don't feel you have to order but I wanted to give you the time if you did!). Please remember to  pay online or pay cheque.

Please note that Monday is a professional development day so there is no school for students.

Terry Fox run is next Thursday afternoon.  Walking permission forms must be completed on the portal before then or your child will need to stay on the school grounds so please complete these immediately.  If you'd like to join our class walking or running that day please let me know.  We are also looking for a couple more parents to be spotters on the route so please notify the school if you can help out there.  Fairview has raised over $300 so far but our goal is $1000.00 so please continue to send in your donations!

School supply fees are $55.00 and should be either paid online or sent in this next week if possible.  Thanks to everyone who has already paid.

Our PAC has sent home entertainment books with every child please remember to return the envelope with money if you want to purchase the book or books and if not return the book to the classroom.

Please ensure your child has inside shoes (running shoes) as soon as possible.   Especially now that it is fall!  Just the couple days we had rain we noticed how dirty how classroom and carpet got when some students didn't change their shoes.

A huge thank you to Sienna's Grandpa for cutting wood for our Thanksgiving craft.  Your time and expertise is really appreciated.

Fairview's cross-country will be starting for any interested students after school next Wednesday.  We had a meeting today at lunch and handed out forms but it's not too late if your child is interested.

Have a great weekend!
