Month: October 2023

Hello Families of Division 11,

Here are some things to note

October 31

On Tuesday October 31 Suncrest will be having a primary halloween singalong in the gym. We will also be having a Halloween Parade after lunch. Start time is at 1:15, Parents are welcome to join us in the gym for the parade. After the parade we will have a halloween party with a short film, games and snacks. If you would like to bring a snack for the group to eat, please ensure it is individually wrapped and nut free as we do have allergies in neighbouring classes.

Last Friday there were pumpkin activity sheets sent home in the student's planners. These are optional and can be returned to school if completed.

November 1

Our class will be having a Panama day on November 1. Students can wear their pyjama's to school for the day.

November Calendar

A calendar will be sent home in student's planner with important dates for November.

November 6 - Family Reading (8:55am - 9:15am). Families are welcome to come into the classroom to read with students.

November 10 - Remembrance Day Assembly at 11am in the gym

Razkids

We now have Razkids up and running. Razkids is an online reading program that students will have access to use at school and at home. Please make sure to use this resource with your child daily to help build their literacy skills. Information on how to login will be sent home in the student's planner. The login information is taped to the front of their planner pocket in case the information sheet is lost.

Thank you!

Hello Families,

Suncrest is having it’s first Spirit Day on Thursday October 19!

Our class will be divided today into 4 teams for Spirit Days and Sports Day (June 2024). Students will be told their colours today and it will be posted on Spaces. Each Spirit Day you can earn points for your house team which will contribute to your team’s sports day total.

The teams are:

• Red

• Blue
• Green

This Thursday October 19 is Dynamic Duo Day. This is a day where you and a friend (or group of friends) can dress up as something that often goes together. You can dress up in the colours or wear a sign/ dress up as a character. It is up to you!

Some examples include:

• Batman and Robin
• Peanut butter and Jelly

Hello Families of Division 11,

A reminder that there is early dismissal at 2pm on Oct 11 and 12 for Welcome Conversations. Please sign up for a time if you have not done so yet. Below are some questions that I will be asking families:

• What are 1 -2 (one academic and one social) goals that you have for your child this school year?
• Are there any stories that you would like to share that will help me understand or support your child better?
• Are there any holidays that your family celebrates that you would like the class to know about?
• Which day of the week works best for your family to come into the school if there are opportunities?
• Do you have any interests or hobbies that you would like to share about or teach to the students?

I look forward to meeting with you all!
