Important November Updates!
November Updates

We are so happy to return to school this week and want to thank you for your continued support! As parents we understand too, the challenges of working virtually. There was an excitement at school today, reminiscent of the first day again! Below you will find an updated calendar and some very important messages for families that affect hot lunch and changes in dates and times for activities at our school:
HOT LUNCH & REIMBURSEMENTS: Our lunch program will resume on November 21st, and the orders are due on Tuesday, Nov. 16th at 11:59 pm. All orders for the week of November 1st, 8th & 15th have been reimbursed. Processing takes 2 days. This will save on any confusion and starts us fresh next week!
SCHOLASTIC ON-LINE BOOK FAIR: Our Book Fair’s new starting date is now November 22nd. Flyers will be sent home this week. Items are shipped free to our school for pick up or for students to take home. A great way to get some Christmas shopping done. Look for details and our school’s special link for shopping. Thanks for supporting literacy!
HARVEY’S PHOTOS: If you have orders for Harvey’s Retake Photos, please send those in as soon as possible (by Wednesday, Nov. 17th), OR even better, you can order them online as per envelope direction. Don’t miss out!
REPORT CARD UPDATE: Our Report Cards will be distributed on November 29th as planned, however, due to the disruption in face to face learning and opportunities for assessment, you may notice areas that are marked ‘NA or not assessed’. Rest assured that the work is in progress. Teachers using NA are indicating that there is not sufficient, or not enough assuredness in the grades they are assigning. The comment section should provide you with information on how things are going in an area that has not been fully assessed for this reporting period. Book an interview time with your teacher. Interviews are virtual or by telephone on Dec. 2 (evening) and on Dec. 3 in the (morning).
Remembrance at Hubbard: Our school will showcase our previously recorded singing and an Act of Remembrance on Wednesday, Nov. 17th. A short video will be shown and a moment of silence. Wear RED that day!
Class Celebrations: that were missed on October 29th will be determined by your class teacher. Thanks for the treats that were shared with our school. Classes enjoyed games and treats in PE class. Some classes arrived to Halloween treat bags today!

Be Safe at School-COVID Updates and Reminders
Over that past month we have been increasingly aware as a province, and school community of the spread of the Coronavirus. Messages are often shared in class in on our morning announcements to help to keep each other safe at school. The latest version of the EECD’s School Guideline for COVID is found in the Healthy and Safe Schools document . It reminds all of us of expectations for masks and hygiene in response to COVID. If you have COVID questions, or want to review the document, please go to: https://www2.gnb.ca/content/dam/gnb/Departments/ed/pdf/2021-22-guidelines.pdf .
We require for all students and staff to have clean masks to be worn at school, and a personal water bottle for use. Do not send students to school if they are unwell, or if they are showing more than one symptom of COVID. Better to be safe than sorry! Seek help if your child has tested positive in a rapid test, or has been in contact with a COVID positive person. Follow the directions of Public Health to help keep each other safe.
We are in this together!
