Good afternoon everyone.  We are down to our last 7 days of school.  We have several things to remember before I let you go for the summer:
Tomorrow . . . we are off to Wascana pool for the afternoon.  Please remember your swim/sun gear.  There is a canteen at the pool so bring money if you want to be able to purchase a snack/drink;
Friday . . . Grade 8's are off to Moose Jaw for the day.  Again, you will need to bring your swim/sun gear as well as a lunch.  If you choose to visit the Fudge Factory, you will need to bring money for that;
Homework:
Health/Careers . . . Holiday planning assignment is due first thing Friday morning - no late submissions accepted;
Math 7 . . . worksheet 4.6 is due tomorrow.  Since we are at Wascana pool in the afternoon, we will have Math first thing in the morning so please get your homework done tonight.
All late homework assignments in Health or Careers needs to be submitted by Thursday in order to be marked in time for report cards.  If you have missed an assignment, I emailed you.  Please check your emails.

Have a great evening and I will see you tomorrow.

Good morning/afternoon/evening (depending on when you're checking in),
I hope today is treating you well.  We are quickly approaching the end of the year and there is SO MUCH TO DO!!!!

1. Grade 8 Farewell - coming up next Tuesday, June 14, 2016.  Plans are coming together nicely.  Grade 7's please remember that we depend on your support to make the reception part of the evening a success.  Please see the following letter (which was sent home last week).

Dear Parents/Guardians of Grade 7 students:

This is a friendly reminder that we need your help to ensure that our Grade Eight Farewell is a success.  As we have done in previous years, the grade seven students and their parents, provide the desserts/dainties and the service for the reception following the farewell ceremony.  This is happening on Tuesday, June 14th.  Many of you have already responded to our original newsletter.  Megan Hunt, Barb Wagner, Linda Forster, Candice Oremba, Katherine Zimmer, Amy Hu and Rae-lyn Snyder, Amy Hu, Karla Sillinger and Nancy Hasapis have all volunteered to take the lead role for organizing the reception on the morning and the evening of the reception.  Their email addresses are:

Megan Hunt
Barb Wagner
Linda Forster
Candice Oremba
Katherine Zimmer
Rae-lyn Snyder
Amy Hu
Karla Sillinger
Nancy Hasapis

  The attached list shows what contributions are being provided from each family.
We do not yet have a commitment to provide dainties/squares from all of our grade seven students.  Remember, next year this event will be for you and at that time you will be taken care of by the grade seven class of next year.  All food items need to be brought to the staff room on the morning of June 14th and they must be entirely nut-free.  Thank you for your assistance.



Sincerely,


Kelley Reoch, Kyle DuMont, Kevin Yeske, Angela Scott
