Weather

 Please ensure that your child is dressed for the colder weather.  Students are outside for 40 minutes during lunch.

Quick Math Quizzes

 We are starting our quick math quizzes the week of November 11.  This is to build fluence with adding and subtracting small amounts quickly.  We will begin with adding 0 & 1.  The following week we will have subtracting 0 & 1.  Then we will continue with adding 2, then subtracting 2 and so on.  You can practice these with your child orally; no need to write this out.  The most that students will have to do is add an amount to 20 and subtract an amount from 20.

Rainy Weather

 With autumn here, please ensure that your child has a raincoat and appropriate footwear for the wet weather.  Please do not send umbrellas to school.  Thank-you.

Date Correction

 Our Meet the Teacher Night has been changed to Wed., Sept. 18 from 17:00 - 18:30.

The Photo Day correction was an error.  It is still Fri., Sept. 27.  My apologies for the mixup.

Curriculum Night: Wed., Sept. 18 17:00-18:30

Photo Day: Fri., Oct 4

Welcome to Grade 3

 We are all learning and settling into new routines.  Thank you to those that have their indoor running shoes at school.  Thank you also to those who have donated a box of tissues to our class.

Education Week

 Education Week is coming May 6th.  We will be hosting a Book Fair all week long, and Open House on Tuesday, May 7 (9:30-10:30), whole school mass on Friday and other special events for students.

Rosaries

 We are looking to work with the St. Philip Women's Auxiliary in order for the grade 3 students to make rosaries.  It is important that each student is able to tie knots for this activity to be successful.  Please practice this skill with your child so that they can complete a rosary when the time comes.

Clothing

 Due to some warmer temperature, those students who have splash pants are encouraged to bring them to school along with their snowpants.  This will allow students to have options depending on the weather that day.  All students should have snowpants with them each day.

Winter Clothing

 Please ensure that your child has snowpants with them every day.  Students spend 40 minutes outside during lunch recess often in the snow.  They need to remain warm and dry throughout the day.
