OUTDOOR RECESS
Our school policy is that students go out for recess in most types of weather. This means that they will be out in cold,
rainy and windy conditions. Please ensure that your child has adequate clothing for the changing weather conditions! I also request a COMPLETE change of clothing in a labeled bag in case of emergency.
BOOMERANG LUNCH
Our classroom is continuing with boomerang lunches which means that all garbage and recyclables that come to school will be returned home in your child's lunch bag. Sending a zip top bag for these items to be returned in will help keep the lunch bag clean!
KISS AND RIDE
Please write a note in the "Parent-Teacher Communication" section in your child's agenda when he or she is to take Kiss and Ride. A note on a separate piece of paper is not necessary. The office cannot guarantee that a phone message will be received before bus time. I also appreciate weekly reminders in the agenda if your child regularly takes Kiss and Ride, even if you have already communicated that to me.
MESSAGES
If you must leave a message on the school phone system, please leave the message in the main office mailbox.
MONEY AND ORDER FORMS
Most ordering is done through the School Cash Online system. If you are not getting email notices when items are uploaded for purchase, please check the School Cash Online website and enable this feature. When sending payment via cash or cheque with your child, please send each money order in separate envelopes (reuse those junk mail response envelopes!) or baggies. Please mark the outside of the envelope or baggie with your child's name, my name and what the envelope contains.
For example
CHILD'S NAME
Mrs. Rowland
Terry Fox Run ($2)
This makes the tracking of the money and orders less time consuming and less likely to get missed. Teaching time is precious!
If you choose not to put money orders in an envelope or baggie, please attach the cheque or cash to the order using a paper clip or staple. Otherwise order forms and money can get separated.
MAIL BAGS
Mail bags have been purchased for your child at Dollarama. They do not typically last the entire year. Please feel free to replace your child's mail bag at any time. Colour and style are not important, as long as the bag will hold the agenda. Also, students are welcome to personalize their mailbags by decorating with fabric paint or permanent marker.
