Class Picture Confusion

I have had a couple of parents ask about class pictures.  This round of photos were only individual shots.  There was no class picture in the package.  However, lifetouch will be coming back in the spring for class pictures.  The tradition whole group photo.  Each child will get 1 whole class photo at no charge.  This is supplied by Lifetouch.

Also, in Kindergarten we will also recieve Grad. Photos.  The traditional "Cap and Gown"  These will be also taken in the spring.  The package will go home, for parents to pick and choose pictures.  However, the school does supply a Dated Grad. photo as a gift in the last report card.

If you have any questions please e-mail and phone.
Thanks

Class Size

I have had some parents asking about class numbers in order to prepare for Halloween.
 
In the Monday/Wednesday Class we have 17 students
In the Tuesday/Thursday Class we have 16 students.
 
Once again I ask that if you want to send treats please try to make it "non-edible" and send them in individual bags or Ziplocks to be handed out at the end of the day.
 
However, sending treats for the class is not required.
 
Thanks
Dina

****Classroom Holidays****

*****Important*****
 
 
Dear Parents,
Throughout the school year, we will be celebrating many holidays in our classroom.  (Ex. Halloween, Christmas, Valentines and Student Birthdays)  Most of us associate these special occasions with food.  Unfortunately, these treats do not always bring happiness to all the students.  Many of your child’s classmates cannot have certain foods due to ethnic, religious or health reasons.  For this reason, I ask that if you do feel that you want to send treats for the class please try to make it “non-edible” and send them in individual bags or Ziplocs to be handed out quickly and easily at the end of the day.
 
Examples:
Birthday Party Trinkets for loot bags
Loonie Store Trinkets
Stickers, Pencils, Erasers, Playdough, Tattoos
**Sending treats for the class is not required.**
 
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact us at 780-986-8456 or dina.hannon@blackgold.ca
 
Sincerely,
 
Mrs. Dina Hannon
