Hi Everyone,

We are continuing our Clothes Study and this week we will focus on What special clothes do people wear to work?  We will ask the children a number of questions about uniforms and who wears them?  We will also ask if anyone in their family wears a uniform?   

Family Engagement:  We are requesting a poster representing your culture be made by you and your child so we can hang it up in the cafeteria during Multicultural Day.  It can be handed in any time between Monday, January 28th and February 15th.  If you have any questions contact one of us for further explanation.  

Important dates:      

February 14th -  Valentines Day - Please have the children wear red that day, if you can.

February 18th and 19th - School Closed for Presidents Day

February 27th - Multiculural Day - On this day we will request all parents/guardians to make a food dish representing your culture and join us in the school cafeteria for a Multi-cultural Feast.

Please send to shool new clothes for your children if you haven't done so already. Thank you.

Also, it is important to send a note into school when your child is not here, explaining their absence.

We would like to request donations of tissue boxes and paper towels, it has been a rough season. 

As always, if you would like to speak with me just leave a note in your childs folder or tell me in the morning and we can make arangements for a time to talk.
