Happy Thanksgiving Southlands families. Hope you all are enjoying your long weekend.
Lot of exciting things going on in school. First all, thanks to all the caregivers who stepped up to be class parents. We now have class parents for all divisions. Class parents can reach out to the class parent co-ordinator, Jenny Wasko Paterson (waskopaterson@yahoo.com) for next steps.
Reminder to send cutlery with your child for hot lunch days. Food does not come with any cutlery, so for a sustainable choice, reusable cutlery can be sent.
Last few days for ordering your SPIRIT WEAR. Order it via munchalunch if you haven't done so already. Any questions on sizes or ordering, can be directed to Gerry Teixeira (gerryteixeira38@gmail.com)
On October 30th, PAC is inviting all the children and families for a little Halloween sprinkle party after school at 3pm in school gym. Join us for hot chocolate, face painting and connecting as a community. Looking forward to meet many of you.
