Information Items:

-Our Terry Fox Walk was a huge success! Together we raised $615.90 for the Terry Fox Foundation.

- Our fall fundraiser will be coming home on Tuesday. Again this year we will be using the Holiday Catalogue from Dieleman Fundraising Sales. It is a terrific catalogue with many options for families. Furthermore, there is an online registration option where family members can make selections from other catalogues as well. FES receives 48% of gross sales and we look forward to putting the funds to good use to make additional enhancements for students at our school. Orders will be due October 19th with packages arriving on November 21st.  Last year we raised about $5100 from our campaign and will be using that money along with $4000 from the Home and School to purchase a new stage for our gymnasium. The days of not being able to see your children perform in concerts will be a thing of the past!

-Thank you to those of you who were able to step up and assist with library. Mrs. Blanchard, Mrs. Branch and Mr. Robichaud still need an additional volunteer each. If you are able to assist, contact our library coordinator, Rita Raymond, ritaraymond03@gmail.com. Classes will start visiting library on Tuesday, Oct. 11^th. 

-Thank you to Sonny Urquhart for volunteering to help with delivering the recycling to the depot on Fridays. We could use another parent to share the task with Sonny as he can not commit each week.  If you are able to assist, please email me at Bonnie.Hierlihy@nbed.nb.ca. (The grade team uses the profits from recycling to help with grade 5 year end festivities).  

-The JDI Cross Country Invitational for grades 3-5 students will take place on Wednesday from 3:30-5:30 at Wolastog Park, Lancaster Avenue, West Saint John. Please see the attachment for more details.

-Registration Week for Kindergarten students beginning in September 2017 will take place October 11th-14th.  Please drop in to the school between 8am and 3:15 pm to complete the registration process.  Bring along your child’s Medicare number, proof of age (birth certificate or passport), and proof of immunization. We would appreciate if you could pass this information along to any friends, family, and neighbours who have children who were born in 2012.

 -Public Health send “First Reminder to Parents of Children with Incomplete Records” notices to kindergarten families whose children had incomplete immunization records. Many students did not have the 4 year booster at the time of school registration. Students are required to show proof of immunizations for school entry. Please send in your child’s updated record. If you have questions, please contact your local public health office at 658-2285.
