Good afternoon!

The students had a great time at Black Creek Pioneer Village today!  Thank you once again to the parent volunteers that joined the group and helped make the day a wonderful one!

Here is a look at the Grade 3 and 4 students listening closely in the long house workshop they attended!

Lunch forms have gone home with all children tonight for March's lunch orders.  Completed forms and payment are due back to the school by February 21st if you would like to order a hot lunch for your child for March.

All students have brought home their math unit review package with them tonight for the measurement unit test.  The unit test will be taking place on February 19th.  Please help remind your child to use this package to help study for the test at home in the nights leading up to the test.

Tomorrow is the last day to buy a Candy Gram!.  The cost is $0.25 per gram.  Students will get to send a note and a Hershey kiss.   Candy Grams will be sold until tomorrow and then delivered to the students on February 13th in their classes. 

Please see the flyer I posted last week about the Oral Competition!  I hope all children are having a great time practising their poems at home in preparation for the in-class competition on Feb. 20th!  This is the day we will have our 3 students chosen to compete in the school competition!

St. Jude's Academy's Annual Gala Dinner is approaching and it is sure to be an evening of fun and entertainment for friends and families alike!  Mark your calenders for this event which takes place on February 22nd at 6:00pm at the Sagan Banquet Hall.  The theme for this year's Gala is 'Legends of the World' which will be reflected in the buffet diner, and the short musical performance by St. Jude's students.  A silent action, raffle tickets and a 50/50 draw will also help add to the excitement of the night. Tickets for the event are $75 for adults and $10 for children.
