Dear Families
At the end of the month we will have various activities to celebrate All Hallows Eve. We wish to share with you the school wide plans. Individual classes will share specific plans for families to prepare for the sharing of treats etc.
On Monday October 30th – we will have a Black and Orange Day. We will also have a Stop, Everything and Dance activity running throughout the day.
On Tuesday October 31st – we will have a costume day. There will be dances throughout the day in the gym based upon age/grade group.
The Primary Students will participate in a Costume Parade.
All Homerooms will also participate in a Jack-O-Lantern Decorating Contest.
As mentioned above, further classroom based learning activities will take place.
The following information was sent out in our October Newsletter in regards to costumes and treats:
Students are welcome to wear costumes to school on Tuesday, October 31, 2023.
The costumes must respect the following rules:
- Faces must be visible (no Halloween full masks)
- Make-up is to be applied at home
- Props are discouraged (save them for Halloween)
- No blood or graphic injuries
- All costumes must be appropriate to be modelled for young children (eg. provocative or violent costumes are not appropriate)
- Students are welcome to bring a change of clothes.
- Students are welcome to wear black and orange instead of a costume if they wish to save their costume for the big night!
- This day will also be one of our Food Exemption Days where students are permitted to bring in treats to share with their classmates if you wish. Your classroom teacher will provide further information about this. Treats must be store bought, individually wrapped and nut free.
Thank you!
