We had a great short week here at MAS! Our cross country runners did a great job this season and had great runs on Wednesday at the district meet. Very proud of their hard work and participation. They were great representatives of MAS. Mrs. Coes’ Grade ¾ class walked to York Care to kick off our partnership with the home. We plan this year to involve all grade levels and share in many new activities with the residents. We are very excited!
This coming week is ‘Safe Schools Week’. This is our opportunity to teach your child what to do in emergency situations, so that in the event of an emergency we are prepared. Your child will participate in emergency practice events throughout the week, such as fire drills, lock down, site evacuation, and bus evacuation. We will also have the fire department here to give a presentation to the whole school. Please throughout the week talk to your child about school safety and its importance.
Student Hunger Program- The Fredericton Community kitchen Student Hunger program this year is sponsoring students at our school for lunch. This year they received a new building and will be having their Grand Opening on Saturday, October 14th at 9:30am. We invite any of our families to join in the opening ceremony to show our appreciation for their support. Hope to see you there!
Home and School Meeting- Our home and school will be meeting on Monday October 16th at 6:00pm. Anyone is welcome to join and attend.
Hot Lunch- This week we will have hot lunch on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday.
Cold Weather- Brrrr….the mornings are getting colder. Many students are still arriving in flip flops, shorts, no jackets, etc. Please be sure your child comes dressed appropriately for the morning temperatures. It’s a good idea to dress them in layers, that way as it warms up throughout the day they can take the layers off.
