GBES Weekly Family Forecast (May 16-20)

Dear Families,

We would like to thank all the volunteers who chaperoned our field trip last Thursday. We couldn’t have picked a nicer day for it.  Everyone seemed to enjoy the day!

Our outdoor classroom is now completed. We have a new chalkboard, picnic tables, and benches for students to do their classwork outside. Our students are already using the chalkboard to play some games.

Grade 3 Provincial Assessments

If you have a child in grade 3 it will be important to ensure that they attend school on May 16th, 17th, 18th, 19th, and 20th. Please make sure your child gets a good night’s sleep and a balanced breakfast before school on these important days.

 

School Supplies

Teachers are beginning to create school supplies lists for next year. Supplies Lists will be shared with families at the end of June. You can pick up supplies on your own or send in $40.00 to the school in June and the school will purchase the supplies for your child (P-5). We are asking all families to complete a School Supply Google Form by clicking on this link  https://forms.gle/uirWZ1rmcNZxtv8e8. The information in the Google Form will tell us how many families are participating and how much supplies we need to order.

Subway lunch takes place tomorrow and Little Caesar’s Pizza takes place on Wednesday.

Have a terrific week,

 

Jimmy Hurley
