Thank you to everyone for making the Halloween dance a success, which would not have happened without the support of volunteers.
All students are welcome to wear costumes during the afternoon on Thursday, October 31! (AM Kindergarten are welcome to come dressed in the morning). Students in Grades 1- 6 should bring their costumes with them in the morning in a separate bag. Students can wear a safe and non-violent costume if children and families so desire. Dressing up is optional. Costumes can be as simple as wearing orange and black or a colour of the student’s choice or just wearing their regular clothes.
PLEASE keep costumes as simple as possible. A student should be able to independently put on and off their costume if needed.
During Halloween activities at school we ask parents to ensure the following:
- No masks or weapons as part of non – violent costumes (face paint is O.K) – students will be asked to remove masks, including if it is part of a costume such as an inflatable.
- No candy sent to school during this day or in the following weeks. Please double check lunches for candy. Avoid any nut-based snacks. We are a nut sensitive school!
Kindergarten AM and PM – Come dressed! - Please have your child dressed in their costume (if you choose to participate with a costume) before they arrive at school.
Thank you for your help to make Halloween a fun and safe activity for everyone!
Unpaid Field Trips
Teachers carefully select experiences that will enhance regular programming, for which there is at times, has a cost associated with it. Fish Creek school currently has over $6000 in unpaid programming fees from prior years. This means that our budget for this year has already been spent over 10% in order to cover these costs from previous years. We would appreciate that these fees be taken care of as soon as possible as otherwise the school has to pay for them and it affects the programming we can offer. They can be paid online through your MyCBE account. If you need help with the payment process or if you feel that you received this message in error, please contact the office. It you need to make payment arrangements, please contact the school directly as soon as possible.
