Hi Folks,
I hope everyone had a wonderful summer despite all the rain we had. It is good to be back and am just dropping a line to give you some information on upcoming activities and dates. As in the past I will start off with cross-country running for any students from grades 4, 5, and 6 who are interested. Training will take place on days 1, 3, and 5 at 11:45 before the students eat. Runners will be training for 1 or 2 meets over the course of the season. If students would like to train and not do the meets that is fine also.
Our annual Terry Fox Run will take place on Friday, September 24th at 1 pm. Parents are more than welcome to join us for this event. Once again we will be asking for loonies and toonies towards fighting this disease.
Following cross-country running students in grades 4, 5, and 6 will be able to participate in lunch hour intramurals. These intramurals will take place from mid October until Spring Break and will encompass everything from volleyball, basketball, handball, floor hockey, etc. All intramurals will take place on days 1, 3, and 5 from 12:10 to 12:45.
Finally I will be continuing on with our after school activities this year. Students in grades 4, 5, and 6 will be able to develop their skills in volleyball, basketball, and floor hockey. All sessions will take place on Mondays and Wednesdays from 3:15 to 4:30. Students will need permission forms from parents for each day they are staying and all students must be picked up at 4:30. Our first volleyball session will be Monday, October 6th.
Should you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me at the school.
