Jour de Souvenir As you know our Remembrance Day ceremony is coming up. On Friday we will be walking to John McCrae House with the rest of the students at our school to partake in the ceremony. It will run between 10:30-11:30. Family members are welcome to attend but please be advised that there will be no seating. Standing room only. Our class will be singing a short song with the rest of the kindergarten students. I will do my best to videotape it for those of you who can't attend. Photo Retake Today Today is also Photo Retake Day. If you would like your child's photo taken please make sure we are aware if you haven't done so already. Email myself if you need to at [email protected] Parent-Teacher Interviews The evening of Thursday, November 29th and all day Friday, November 30th have been set aside for parent/teacher interviews. All K to 8 interviews are booked ONLINE. Please follow the directions below to book an interview online with one, two, or all of your child’s teachers. Interviews are a wonderful opportunity for parents, teachers and students to work collaboratively to discuss, plan and set effective next steps for individual student achievement goals. Students are invited to attend the interview. Instructions for ONLINE booking: (available from November 20th at 4pm to November 29th at noon) 1: Visit: https://webapps.ugdsb.on.ca/InterviewSchedule/Account/Login 2: Input student’s OEN# (found at the top of the student’s report card) - I WILL SEND THIS HOME IN THE COMMUNICATION BAG TODAY FOR OUR YEAR 1 STUDENTS 3: Input student’s date of birth 4: From “Teacher List” select which teacher(s) you would like an interview with. 5. Select “Show Appointment Schedule”. 6. Select time(s) and choose “Book Appointment”. Mme Miller and I would like you to know that we are also available before and after school if that's any easier. We actually prefer not to be completely booked on interview days if possible! Please let us know if that suits your schedule and we will do our best to accomodate. JUNGLE FEVER Lastly, although the students were pretty sad to see the haunted house come down, they are pretty excited for our next adventure to the RAINFOREST! Mme Miller and I (and some lucky volunteers) will be prepping our next centre with jungle adventurers in mind. If you have anything at home that would fit the bill for a jungle and you don't mind sending it in, please do! We are specifically looking for adventurer items like binoculars, vests, maps but also any rainforest animals (monkeys, snakes, lizards, tropical birds etc). Please keep in mind that anything that you do send in might get broken. Merci! Have a great rest of the week. Melissa
