School is closed today

Hello families,

I know our district website is slow due to high website traffic so I thought I’d post this here in case you didn’t see the announcement yet.

Have a great Snow Day!

Dress appropriately for the weather

Hello families,

This is just a reminder to dress your child appropriately for the weather. It is going to be very cold outside for the next week or so. If your child has a toque, snow gloves and snow pants/jacket please have them wear/bring them to school to keep them warm outside at recess and lunch.

Many thanks,

Ms. Quin

Re: Safe Bodies, Strong Kids (SBSK) Lesson 6: Keeping My Body Healthy and Clean

 

This week students learned that the only reason any adult, even an adult they know, should touch or look at their private parts is to keep them clean and healthy.

Some great books to read with your child at home:

Gorgonzola: A Very Stinkysaurus – Margie Palatini

The Pigeon Needs a Bath! – Mo Willems

Please feel free to connect if you have any questions about this week’s lesson.

Winter Concert

Hello families!

I hope you had a wonderful weekend! I wanted to let you know that our school will be having a winter concert on Wednesday, December 20th at 6:30pm. The children are super excited to come to school at night time! 🙂 We are asking that all children are dropped off at their classroom for 6:15pm. More details about tickets will be sent home soon (from the school/office email).

Many thanks,

Ms. Quin

Safe Bodies, Strong Kids (SBSK) Lesson 4: My Body Belongs to Me

Dear Parents/Caregivers,

Last week students learned that they can be assertive in regard to their personal space and touch. They can stand up for themselves and say “No” using a strong voice and a strong body if someone touches them in a way they don’t like.

Ask your child to demonstrate using strong body language in situations where they may feel uncomfortable.

Some great books to read with your child at home:

  • Stand Tall Molly Lou Mellon – Patty Lovell
  • One – Kathryn Otoshia
  • Don’t Hug Doug – Carrie Finison

Please feel free to connect if you have any questions about this week’s lesson.

Family Book Fair Today

Hello Families,

Sorry for the last minute reminder, but I wanted to let you know that our school is having our family book fair session today from 3-5pm. You are welcome to join your child in our school library to browse the Scholastic book fair. (This is optional)

Many thanks

Ms. Quin
