Hi Parents!
I know you are probably thinking “enough information already!” I am so sorry if you are feeling overwhelmed. I just want to make sure I am doing my part in keeping you informed.
Comfort Kits:
Tomorrow a letter is coming home explaining what these are and what you need to do for them. Please look for the orange paper in your child’s folder tomorrow.
Knight Shirts:
Each child in full time kindie is coming home with a black Knight shirt today. These knight shirts are to wear on the last Wednesday of each month. This day will be known as Knight Day and we wear these shirts in support of our school sports teams and to build our school spirit. Students can wear casual bottoms with these shirts. If your child doesn’t want to wear their knight shirt, they will need to wear their uniform.
And more:
I just wanted to say how pleased I am with how well the students are settling into our routines at school. There is so much to learn and remember (you think YOU have a lot to keep straight!). It is so nice to have lockers to keep our special things in, and the students are working on being responsible for their things. You all did such an AMAZING job using the back and forth folders for pizza orders! THANK YOU SO MUCH! Your help following these procedures helps our day go so much more smoothly!
Book Order:
A scholastic book order form went home earlier this week. If you would like to place an order, please take a look at the front page of the order form for the due date. Payment can be made in the form of cheque or you can pay online with a credit card. Let me know if you need assistance finding out how to do that. Your scholastic orders enable me to acquire new books and manipulatives for the classroom. There are always such fun books in there!
Special Classes:
3 times a week we have PE- 2 of these times we are in the gym with Mrs. Morris’ kindergarten class. Mrs. Morris and I take turns planning and teaching these classes. The remaining gym time we are in the gym on our own,
2 times a week the students have library. We had our first library visit yesterday. Mondays the students will take books home. Please return your students’ books NEXT Monday. They will then bring new books home on that day. Fridays the students will go to the library to have story time and sometimes to play a game, color a picture or have quiet book time. Mrs. Britz is our wonderful librarian and she is excited to get to know each of our kindies.
2 times a week the students have music. These classes take place on Tuesdays and Wednesdays. Mrs. Caswell is our music teacher and she loves to hear the children sing and worship God. They had a wonderful time today singing together!
