Some information...

Just a few bits of information for you...

I heard that some of you did not receive the email from the school about pj day.  If you are not receiving school emails (not emails from me, but emails from Brooksbank), please contact the office to make sure that they have your correct address. 

Halloween is on Friday.  The Kindergarten classes have decided to keep things pretty low key.  We will be doing some crafts and activities in the class on Friday and we will participate in the school parade in the afternoon.  If you would like to come and help the children change into costumes at 1:00, that would be great.  Then you can make your way to the gym to watch the parade come through and see all the costumes.

Next week is parent conference week at Brooksbank.  This is a chance for you to come in and chat with me about your child's progress to date.  There is a sign up sheet located outside the office.  Please sign up for a 15 minute spot.  Children do not attend these conferences.  If none of these times work for you, please let me know and we can arrange another meeting time.  Also, please note that dismissal is at 2:00 on Tuesday and Thursday next week to allow time for these conferences.  (Wednesday remains a 2:00 dismissal).

Miss C (a teacher candidate...formerly known as a student teacher...from UBC) is spending 2 weeks with us.  She has already established a really lovely relationship with the students and they are excited to work with her.  Please come in and chat with her if you wish.

Looking ahead....

Remember to set your clocks back this weekend!

There will be a Remembrance Day Assembly on Friday, November 7.
