Looks like Winter!

Today things really started to feel like winter. Snow to play with and very rosy cheeks after recess! Please remember to start bringing mitts, hats, scarves etc. to school each day. We will be going outside for recess unless it is colder than -20C. 

This afternoon our grade 5-6 friends from the Me to We club came to tell us about a new campaign they are running in preparation for the holiday season. The campaign is called Fill a Sock, Fill a Need and supports clients at the Calgary Drop-in Centre. More information about the campaign can be found here: http://www.thedi.ca/fill-a-sock-fill-a-need/

We are hoping to collect the following new items for the campaign: 

• Gloves, mitts and hats
• Lip balm and travel size toiletries
• Cough drops
• Travel mugs
• Deodorant (non-alcohol based)
• Brush and combs
• Socks and underwear
• Gift certificates (i.e. Tim Horton’s or McDonalds)
• Chocolates and candy

Please remember that there is no school for students tomorrow. Have a great long weekend!
