A note from the teacher

The Carnival
The Carnival is this Thursday March 12th from 5 – 8. This is an inexpensive fun family night. There will be two bounce houses, a treasure dig, fishing game, face painting and a photographer will be there to take your family picture! Dinner will be served from 5-7 and will include hot dog, juice/water, and a cookie. Meal tickets can be purchased at the door for $6.00. Game tickets can also be purchased that night and are 4 for $1.00. The bounce houses will be 2 tickets all other games will only be 1 ticket.
We will host the Photography Booth, so I will be asking for volunteers to help with our booth. You can also sign up to help set for and clean up after the carnival, it’s a great way to serve your hour of volunteer work that is asked by the school.
We have also asked for items for our auction baskets, which are a
Gift Card Basket for the morning class and a Sweet Treat Basket for the afternoon class. We would like to have those items by the 10th at the latest.

The Hough Parade
The Hough Parade is parade that takes place downtown Vancouver on St. Patrick’s Day. Our school is going to walk in it this year, which I am very pleased with the sense of community and we get to wear our purple shirts. Purple and green go together right ? We will release at 11:30 that day so everyone wishing to participate or watch the parade may. We will meet on the corner of McLoughlin & Daniels Streets at 12:00 to check-in. The parade begins at 12:30. The theme is Yes We Can. There will be no afternoon class that day as we will all walk in the parade. Parents will need to accompany their kids if they are walking with our group. You can bring strollers or wagons, maybe even decorated ones!
