Weekly Update - March 4 - 8

                                                          

March is nutrition month and we will be talking a lot about making healthy food choices. We will likely use lunch time as an opportunity to have these discussions. Please remember to send lunches that do not need to be heated up by microwave. This rule was put into place because we only have 3 designated microwaves for student use. If a high number of students use them, many students would not be able to eat their lunch during the allotted time.

Shrove Tuesday is on March 5th, there will be a pancake lunch in the gym. We are off to St. Martha Church for Ash Wednesday mass on Wednesday March 6th. Parents are most welcome to join us! Mass begins at 11:00 am, we will be taking students to and from church by bus.

We head out to Home Depot on March 7th. Both grade one classes will be going so there may not be room for parents on the bus this time. We will leave the school about 9:00 am. We are scheduled to be there from 9:20 to 11:00ish. We will be building a wooden craft, so the more hands the better! Thank you to all of the parents who have volunteered to help out.

Soon it will be St. Patrick’s Day!! Please have your children bring their Leprechaun traps to school by March 13th. We will place them out for rest of the school to admire. Due to both Friday and Monday being PD Days and St. Patrick's Day falling on a Sunday this year, we will have our celebration on the Thursday. We will send the traps home on the Tuesday.
