Are you looking for great gift ideas for your child/children for Christmas? Why not give the gift of reading? Next month's there are 5 different book orders to choose from + those coming in December. We can sent up private orders and payment, so your child/children will not know before Christmas, please feel free to contact me by e-mail cheryl.richardson@nbed.nb.ca  for further information.Skating will begin in November for the students of HMS, please make sure to check to see if your child has skates which are appropriate size for them and helmet. Also, if your child is unable to tie their own skates, please practice at home with them, as we will have 62 students on the ice with only 2 teachers able to help out with tying skates. We do have extra skates and helmets here at school, if your child needs to borrow a pair not a problem at all, they just have to check in the office a few days before. Our first skating trip will be Friday, November 28 (Day 3) (load bus at 8:35 - 2 trips, and return at 10:10 - 2 trips). If your child is not skating, we will require a written note indicating why, please send this note a few days before so we can make arrangements at school for those not attending. Thank you. Please feel free to contact me by e-mail cheryl.richardson@nbed.nb.ca  if you have questions.On Friday October 31st my homeroom class 6E1 will be celebrating their 1st place winning ( gas fundraiser) with a pizza Party and activities in the afternoon. The students of 6E1 came up with various ideas on how to celebrate and then voted on the Halloween + Pizza party. We will be eating our pizza at 1:00 pm, so please send some snacks to help them get through lunch until we eat at 1:00, they will then choose a movie to watch ( this will be viewed in French as they are in Immersion), I have advised I have movies here which the Purple Team have purchased or they may bring one from home ( I would like to see it before Friday to check if it is age appropriate) and the students will vote on the one they want to watch. I will also have games/ activities for them in the afternoon after the movie. Pizza, drink and a treat will be provide for them, however I do have students who asked if they could bring something in...they may choose to bring something ( this is not mandatory!) We have a total of 24 students in 6E1 and please make sure it's peanut + nut free as we do have a student with severe allergies.
