December 2nd

Thanks to everyone for attending your child's conference these last couple of days.  It was great to see everyone, to celebrate your child's work and learning so far this year and to set goals for our next term.

It's so hard to believe it is already December!  It will be a fun but busy month.  I have updated the calendar on this blog with all the important dates for class and school wide events.

Our concert is coming up quickly and you've probably heard your child singing their songs.  We will be wearing pyjamas for our costume. They will need to wear them on Tuesday, Dec. 12 in the morning for the dress rehearsal, again that evening (the concert is at 6:30pm) and then again for the afternoon performance on Wednesday, Dec. 13th (1:00pm).

We have two field trips planned for December. Friday, Dec. 15th to Burnaby Village Museum and then skating at Planet Ice on Tuesday, Dec. 19th.  Both of these trips are on the portal so please sign up asap.  Thanks to everyone who already has and also to everyone who has signed up to drive.  Please ensure you have a current driver's abstract on file in the office.  If you are uncertain please contact Joy in the office (604-465-9331) or just write a note in your child's planner and I will send home the volunteer form with all the directions (it is very quick and easy now as it can be done online or over the phone).

The last day of school before the break will be our classroom celebration. I will post the reminder notice to all parents who are bringing in snacks closer to the date.

Enjoy your weekend - it looks like we may see some sun next week!
