Honouring Ceremony

Our Honouring Ceremony is coming up on Monday morning. The students should arrive to school at the normal time. We will meet in our classrooms, take attendance, get prepared, and then the ceremony will start. I am going to guess that we should be ready to go between 8:15-8:30. The ceremony should last about 90 minutes and there will be a reception to follow.
This is an important event to the students. Please make every effort to be in attendance. Each student will be delivering a speech that they've written to honour their years at our school. Students should be neatly dressed but not too fancy as we will be going to the park in the afternoon.
Permission forms for the park celebration were handed out yesterday. They are due back tomorrow. Please remember to fill out the back which asks how many slices of pizza they are ordering.
We are also hoping for some snack donations for the park celebration. Please bring them with you on Monday morning.

The Chalk Festival this Monday was a lot of fun. Many students were reflecting on how it would be their last. Yesterday's National Aboriginal Day Celebration was a scorcher but it was a neat experience getting to see the Governor General. It was also impressive to see his many security guards dressed in full suits standing in the blazing sun and not breaking out in sweat!
