As Halloween is quickly approaching, we are going to be holding an Orange and Black spirit day on Friday, October 30th. Students are encouraged to wear black and orange clothes or a Halloween costume. If you choose to have your child wear a costume, please remember that students are not to wear masks, or have any weapons (plastic swords, knives, guns, etc.) that are carried with them. Please keep them at home. Students are permitted to wear the costumes for the entire day, however, you may want to bring in a change of clothes for them to change at one of the nutrition breaks.
As well, our Me to We team will be hosting our first “We Scare Hunger” food drive. Food donations will be collected on this day, for one day only. Please consider the donation as your child’s “ticket” to dress up for the day. The food that is collected will be donated to a local food cupboard.
Also, many classes will be holding an afternoon class celebration. If you are planning to send in any treats for the children, we would ask that you bring healthy, nutritious treats for them. Click on the link below for examples from Pinterest of what your child could bring that is both healthy and fun! Check out Pinterest for more creative snack ideas to share.
If you have any questions or concerns, please contact your child’s teacher.
