We will be having "Fun Fridays" for the next four weeks. Students are asked to bring in a donation of any amount.

Friday October 21- Favourite Sports Jersey
Friday October 28- Black and Orange Day

We will also be holding a Jack-O-Lantern Raffle on October 28th.  Each class has been asked to enter one decorated (carved or painted) jack-o-lantern into the display to be raffled off.  Students will be able to purchase tickets for $0.50 or one three for $1.00 to put towards the pumpkin of their choice. Names will be drawn and jack-o-lanterns sent home that Friday. If any of you have any fun ideas or special carving/decorating ideas we would appreciate your input/donations.   

Happy Halloween!
