School Patrol Movie

Good afternoon,

There is another patrol movie special coming up on Saturday December 13th at Silver City Polo Park. The movie is Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs 2 and How to Train Your Dragon 2 (I believe they are to choose between the 2 movies).  The doors open at 8:15 am and the movie begins at 9:00 am. Parents are asked to pick up their child at 10:30 am sharp.  Students may also purchase a popcorn pack for $5.00 (this includes popcorn, a drink, and a treat).

A letter was sent home with the patrols today.

I will be giving a quiz in Science on Friday.  We will do a review on Thursday as a class.  The students have a note explaining the quiz and the material and their booklet that they may use to study. It is in their agenda.

As always, please let me know if you have any questions.

A few notes

Here are a few notes...

1. The Remembrance Day Ceremony is tomorrow morning at 10:15 am.  All parents are invited to attend.  Choir students are to wear a nice white top or blouse and nice black pants.  If your child is in Girl Guides or Boy Scouts, they may wear their uniform.

2. I am sending home a French written text tonight that the students are to recopy only.  Many have finished, but a few students still need to complete the work for tomorrow.  Tomorrow I will send home an English writing piece that needs to be completed as homework for next Wednesday.  I will give them more time tomorrow to finish the English text.

3. Just a reminder that there is not school next Monday or Tuesday.

Enjoy the long weekend!
