Reminders/Shout out
· Our parent council playground committee has done an amazing job! Next week should see the completion of the new play structure, and soon the basketball nets and gaga pits will be installed. To this end we do have large equipment and workmen on site at times, so we are restricted in playground use. This won’t last long and will be well worth the wait.
· Please remember to call in and leave a message on the attendance line if your child will be late or absent. This really aids the office staff.
· Picture day is Thursday September 12,2024. We would appreciate having 2 volunteers to help from 8:30 to 12:30. If you are available, please email Nadine at Yacey, Nadine M nmyacey@cbe.ab.ca
· Please ensure your child has proper footwear for PE and running outside. Many students are wearing Crocs as their outdoor shoes. Crocs are unfortunately not appropriate footwear for outdoor gym or any type of running activity. We have outdoor gym daily and students are expected to wear proper running footwear (not Crocs or sandals or similar footwear). Crocs or sandals can be tricky and lead to injuries as they tend to come off easily.
· Meet the Teacher evening is Thursday from 5:30 to 6:30. This is your chance to come with your child, see their classroom and meet the teacher. There will be no formal presentations, the format will be a drop-in session where you can see the space and have a quick chat with the teacher. Hope to see you all there!
