Happy Mothers' Day!

Here are some thoughts about you from our class:

Getting Ready for the Trip

We will be outside all day Friday and it will be hot. Please put on lots of sunscreen and send a hat and water bottle. We will also need their lunch and a set of extra clothes. Thank you!

Book Fair Tomorrow

Please send in a Loonie tomorrow in a baggie with your child's name on it if you would like them to get 2 books at the book fair. We are going at 11 am.   Thank you!

Volunteers for the Trip

Thank you to all of the parents and grandpa who volunteered. We would like to include anyone who would like to come. The only challenge is that there is not quite enough room on the bus. We have 11 volunteers and 7 spots for them. The volunteers are:

Nada, Heather, Chantal, Jeremy, Sara, David, Samantha, her sister, her dad Fred, John or Jessica, Erin . Please email me at sarah.whitehead@ocdsb if you either really need a spot on the bus or would be happy to drive. We can carpool volunteers if  you like. There is parking under the War Museum. Please contact me tonight and we can finalize our plans. Thanks so much!

Suddenly Summer!!

It's so nice out all of a sudden! However, we only have one tree in the playground and it has no leaves yet. Please send a sun hat and sun screen with your child. Thanks so much!

All About the Field Trip

We are counting down the days to the FIELD TRIP to the OTTAWA INTERNATIONAL CHILDRENS' FESTIVAL!!! We are going all day on Friday, May 8th and need lots of volunteers to supervise small groups of children, with our help.  There is room for some volunteers on the bus and more if you would like to meet us there. 

We will see a performance of Jack and the Bean. It looks delightful. There will also be time to visit the displays and do many other science, music and art activities. 

We will have a picnic lunch. If the weather is wet we can still do all the activities because they are in tents. Please dress your child for the weather because they will be outside all day!

The trip permission form is coming home today and MUST be returned for your child to go on the trip. Please send it right back in tomorrow so you don't forget. 

The cost of the trip is $5.00. This is because we have been given a grant from the Westboro Business Association and from the Broadview Parents' Council. We will also use some of the voluntary school fees. Thank you to all of our sponsors!!!

Thank you for your help making this amazing trip happen.
