Hello Families,
We have a big week ahead of us as we prepare for the Christmas holiday. A few things to remember:
We are collecting non-perishable items for the Christmas Baskets. These items are distributed to DES families in need this holiday season, and we are encouraging students to bring items in until Friday.
If you would like to receive a basket this year, please call the office.
Thursday is our annual Winter Concert. The students will be performing at the CCDS, and the concert starts at 12:30. Parents are asked to arrive by 12:20 so that the show can start on time. Students will return to school from the community centre and can be picked up at school if you so desire.
Friday is Pyjama Day and the PPO has organized a Pizza Lunch and an afternoon activity. There will be special activities all day, and we look forward to having our sixth graders here to help with the lunch and the packing of the Christmas Baskets. Permission forms for the lunch went home last week and are needed back at school to help with our planning.
If you have time to help on Friday, the PPO is looking for extra hands to help with the lunch and other activities, please call Nathalie at 819 818-2546.
On behalf of everyone here at DES, please accept our most heartfelt wishes for a safe and healthy holiday season, and may the new year bring joy to you and yours.
Happy Holidays,
Kathy Napier
Homework this week:
*Book Response (assigned last Monday) due Wednesday
*Ventriloquism: as part of our Drama course and the dramatic appreciation of today's show, please record yourself (using our ipad and a 'puppet' of your choice), telling a knock-knock joke. To be shared in class at the end of the week. Can't appreciate how hard it is until we've tried it...;)
