Memo for Garden Creek Parents and Guardians
There
are many thanks to be noted today!
Interviews
:
thank you to all our parents who came out to discuss your children’s progress
with our teachers. We look forward to more open communication in the remainder
of the year and celebrating successes! If you did not have a chance to meet, it
is never too late! Just call the office or email the teacher to set it up.
Please remember that we are always open to meeting with you at any point of the
year as needed.
Fundraising
Efforts!
Thank you to our Creeker Community for a huge success at our Bazaar! Well over
10 000 dollars were raised and fun was had by all! Thank you especially to our
committee, especially our leads, for their amazing work and
enthusiasm! We also note that the Acorn fundraiser brought in $1000
along with movie night at $620. These monies will go to rejuvenate our
playground and for other items and initiatives needed in our school.
Playground
Update –
The updating to the playground has gotten underway this week. A new swing set,
and funnel ball will be installed as well as the necessary borders and pea
gravel. The older tether ball poles were removed along with the old swing set.
Physical
Education Note from Mme. Plourde – This month we are working on a
unit in gymnastics. Grades 3-5 Students are asked to balance on different
types of equipment. This week , a helmet will be required for certain
balance boards, which is mandated in the curriculum document. Helmets will be
provided, but if you prefer that your child bring their own from home, this is
acceptable as well. Thank you.
Wreaths and Poinsettias – Dates for pick up at
the school are as follows: Dec 3 from 10 – 11 and 2-4 Dec 4
from 11 – 1 . Thank you to Julie Werner for her Christmas work!
Chapter’s Night – next Tuesday, December 3rd
, is a chance to get some shopping done at Chapter’s and to support our school.
15% of all sales from 6-9pm go directly to our school. Our
beautiful grade 3-5 choir will also be performing, so come on out for a festive
night of shopping and listening to carols. The choir will perform at 6:00 pm.
