February Calendar

Valentine Cards
Valentine's day is quickly approaching.  A list of names will be going home shortly to assist your child in writing their Valentine's cards.  Please send the cards to school BEFORE Valentine's day so the student's will have plenty of time to hand them out.

Carnaval Week
The week of February 4th is Carnaval week.  The students will be participating in winter activities all week.  Please look at the calendar to see what is happening on which days.

Scholastic Book Orders
Many of the students have begun to read and practicing to read at home is very important to strengthen the new skills they are learning.  Hearing stories read to them as well as reading short books themselves will help develop their reading, listening and thinking skills which will only help them succeed in the future.  Scholastic's offers many different types of books at very reasonable prices.  If you would like to place an order follow the directions on the back of the flyer.

Pink Day
Send your child to school dressed in pink and/or bringing in something that is pink.

Parent-Teacher Interviews
First term report cards will be going home in February and interviews will follow shortly after.  Please make an appointment with your child's teacher to discuss their progress in term 1.  There will be a PD Day on February 15th for interviews.

Family Day
Family day is February 18th and there is no school.  Have fun celebrating the day with your families!
