Hi everyone,
We have had a busy week of Gingerbread stories and activities. Please ask your child about the books we read,
For sharing we loved listening to the family Christmas traditions. There was lots of decorating, eating and making Christmas cookies and Gingerbread Houses.
Sharing: Oral -Your child's favourite Holiday treat/food/drink? What it is? Why special? Do they help make it?
Extra Clothes - please send extra underwear and pants. The children get wet easily and usually after outside play want to change their pants. If you could please send an extra set that would be great..
Some activities happening at school:
This holiday season, we are again supporting the Central Saanich Police in their 4th Annual 'Cram the Cruiser' Toy Drive. We will be accepting new unwrapped toys for children aged 2-12 years from December 1-16th. All toys are donated to local families in the Community.
