Volunteers needed

Chers Parents,
 
 We are looking for a few parents to come in on Halloween day, Friday October 31st at 9:30am to help investigate pumpkins with the students. If you are able to come in, please send a note in your child’s communication book.

In addition, we are looking for a few parents who may be interested in making playdoh for our classroom.  If you are willing to make playdoh and/or need a simple recipe, please send a note in your child’s communication book and we will send out a schedule for the entire school year.

If there is something that you would like to volunteer to do in our classroom at some point in the future please send a note in your child's communication book. I will contact you to discuss a time that works for all of us. Some ideas include but are not limited to: baking, cooking, crafts, story reading, science investigations, dramatic play, story writing, teaching about different cultures etc...

The donations to the Cereal Box Challenge continues to be great! We are still collecting until Tuesday October 28. Thank you so much for your generous donations!

We are enjoying the students and we appreciate all the continued support from our parents. Please remember to check the blog regularly so that you can support your child’s learning at school.

Mme Danby, Mlle Perron, et Mme Kailer 


Special Visitors Today

At the last minute we were notified that some student firefighters from St. Clair College Firefighting program would be stopping by to talk to the students and allowing them to tour the Fire Truck. Our students were so excited! Here are some pictures:













 







 
The Firefighters talked to our students about:
- the importance of having a fire safety plan in place at home
- creating a meeting place outside of the house incase they ever needed to evacuate the building
- Stop Drop and Roll if their cloths catch fire
- Call 911 if they see a fire at home and tell an adult
- Not to be afraid of Firefighters in uniform because they are there to help in case of an emergency
 
As a family you can review these important Fire Safety expectations at home.
