We are excited to be holding our annual Terry Fox Run on Friday, September 15th from 10:00 – 10:45am weather permitting. Students are encouraged to remember to bring their running shoes, water bottles, hats and sun screen. Also, we’d love to have some volunteers support our run. Teachers have sent out a sign-up form so please submit this if you are interested in helping out. We’ll be completing the run around the wetlands on the community path. Teachers also collecting “toonies for Terry” to support cancer research all week. If you are interested in donating, please have your child bring a toonie to their teacher.
We are looking forward to our Meet the Teacher Open House on Thursday, September 21 from 4:30 to 6:30pm. Students are encouraged and welcomed to attend as school council will be serving treats. The purpose of Meet the Teacher is to see your child’s classroom, hear about the programing and expectations as well as ask general questions you may have.
EES will be reaching out to parents and booking individual appointments.
Grade 1-6 & Mr. Knuttila’s Kindergarten class will follow the open house format. Teachers will be doing a presentation at 4:30, 5:00, 5:30, and 6:00pm (every half hour). To hear the full presentation, it is important that you arrive at the presentation start times. Presentations will be approximately 20 mins with 5 to 10 mins for general questions. There is no registration required for these presentations. Just attend at one of the times that is convenient for you. If you have more than one child, plan you schedule accordingly.
Due to Ms. Fieldstone teaching both AM and PM Kindergarten, she will be following the schedule below:
· 4:30pm AM Kindergarten Session
· 5:00pm PM Kindergarten Session
· 5:30pm AM Kindergarten Session
· 6:00pm PM Kindergarten Session
If you require a one-on-one meeting with the teacher to share specific information about your child, you will be able to book an appointment on Friday September 22 between 8:00am to 1:00pm. As teachers are just getting to know each of their students, they will not be able to share specifics around academics. If this time does not work for you, please connect with your child’s teacher and they can make alternative arrangements.
