First, picture day is coming! Lifetouch will be here to take our fall photos on Wednesday, October 2nd. Students are bringing home order forms in the student agendas today for those that wish to purchase photos. Photos can also be purchased online both before and after picture day using our Picture Day ID: QI049011Y0. Payment (ie. cash, money order, or cheque - made payable to Lifetouch Canada) can be returned to school in the student agenda along with the completed order forms. Parents/guardians purchasing photos online do not need to complete or return the order forms to school. Second, students brought home information regarding the Grade 3 Student Learning Assessment (SLA) today. This assessment is based on literacy and numeracy outcomes from Alberta's Grade 2 program of studies and is meant to enable parents/guardians and teachers to identify student strengths and areas for growth at the beginning of the school year. The purpose is to use this information to enhance planning/instruction so as to improve student learning. The assessment consists of both digital questions (to be marked by Alberta Education) and performance tasks (to be marked locally) for both literacy and numeracy. Your student does not need to study for this assessment. Students will be completing portions of the assessment periodically until October 7th. Please let me know if you have any questions or concerns in regards to any of the above, - Ashley Barrington, Grade 3 Teacher Agenda - Sr. Choir: Tuesdays, 3:15-4:15 pm (begins September 24th) - Parent Council Meeting (September 24th, 2:15 pm) - Classroom Reward Pyjama Day (Wednesday, September 25th) - Terry Fox Walk (September 26th) - Hot Lunch ordering opens September 16th/closes September 27th (Begins October 8th) - Orange Shirt Day (September 30th) - Picture Day (October 2nd) - Fri-yay Popcorn Day (October 11th) Agenda - Sr. Choir: Tuesdays, 3:15-4:15 pm (begins September 24th) - Parent Council Meeting (September 24th, 2:15 pm) - Terry Fox Walk (September 26th) - Hot Lunch ordering opens September 16th/closes September 27th (Begins October 8th) - Orange Shirt Day (September 30th) - Picture Day (October 2nd) - Fri-yay Popcorn Day (October 11th) Please see the following email, shared earlier this evening: Good evening, Just a few reminders about upcoming events and activities taking place at school. First, on Thursday, September 26th, students will be taking part in the annual Terry Fox Walk. This year we are taking part in the Terry Fox Challenge #1000challengesforTerry. Our fundraising goal is $4000. If we reach our goal we will celebrate with a Dance Party in the gym! Students brought home information about the above in the student agendas earlier today. However, you can also donate (if you choose to do so) as follows: Click this link: http://www.terryfox.ca/ChristinaGordonPublicSchool to visit our school’s fundraising page. It’s fast, easy, and donors get a receipt immediately by email. Alternately, go to terryfox.org and follow the instructions:
Donations can also be made by submitting cash/cheques and entering the donor information on the pledge sheet sent home earlier today. Donations of $20 or more listed on the Terry Fox pledge sheet (with full donor name and address) are automatically receipted. Cheques can be made payable to "The Terry Fox Foundation." Please return any pledge forms and all funds by Wednesday, September 25th. Students may also choose to also set up their own fundraising page by clicking the “Donate to a Student” button. Their page will connect automatically to our school’s fundraising page and they’ll receive a link to email friends and family to help them reach their fundraising goal. As always, students and families are under no obligation to fundraise. All students will learn about and participate in the Terry Fox Walk regardless. Second, the Fundraising Association has shared the following information in regards to the Hot Lunch Program. All orders must be made online to ensure accuracy and to make the process as easy for everyone as possible. The first hot lunch date will be October 8th.
