Greenfield Elementary School

Tomorrow is our third Gator Giving Day.  It is PJ’s or cozy clothes for everyone!

Bring a toonie or a loonie if you can.

This is last call for orders for the Live and Give Personalized Keepsake Ornaments.  If there are any late orders, they can come in tomorrow.

Tomorrow is a Gator Giving Day!

Wear a crazy hat (or just a hat!) or wear your crazy hair.

Bring a toonie or a loonie if you can.

A reminder that we are having our Parent Information Night this evening at 6:00 – 7:00 in the library. The focus is “Supporting Your Child’s Learning at Home.”   There will be a session on supporting math learning and a session on literacy for both English and French Immersion.

It will be an informative evening that we hope will be helpful after Parent-Teacher Interviews. There will be door prizes and refreshments.  Join us!

Parent-Teacher Interviews are on this evening and tomorrow, although we know many parents have been visiting earlier this week.

We have a Lost and Found box that is full of some very nice items.  We have displayed everything in the lobby and we hope that when parents are in, they will check the table to see if anything belongs to their child.  These items do belong to someone!

Also, we have delicious foods showing up for our Bake Sale. Do plan to drop by the table.  You will not be disappointed!

There will be a table in the lobby with information on our “Supporting Your Child’s Learning at Home”, an evening that we have planned for Tuesday, November 12th (6:00 – 7:00).  We will be offering two sessions – one on supporting math at home and one supporting literacy learning (a session for English and French Immersion).  Please pick up a copy of the information if you are interested.  Department of Education staff and school staff will be presenting.  It will be an interactive and informative evening with refreshments. And there will be prize draws!

A reminder that there is no school on Monday, November 11th for Remembrance Day and no school on Thursday, November 14 and Friday, November 15th  for Teacher’s Convention.

We had a great start to our day at Greenfield.  It was Jersey Day and members of the Summerside Capitals were here to help in the Breakfast Program.  They found out they have many fans at Greenfield.  There were a lot of Caps jerseys here today!

Jersey Day is one of the Gator Giving Days that we have on Wednesdays in the month of November to raise funds for our Christmas Hampers.  Here are the other Gators Giving Days to come:

November 13th – Crazy Hair/Crazy Hat Day

November 20th – PJ Day/Cozy Clothes Day

November 27th – Red and Green Day (Christmas Spirit Day)

Here is an update on the Christmas Hamper activities from Home and School:

Tomorrow is the first day of our special Wednesdays to support our fundraising for the Christmas Hampers and it is Jersey Day!  Members of the Summerside Capitals will be here to help our in our Breakfast Program and to help out in classrooms afterwards.   It would be great if students can bring a loonie or a toonie to support our Christmas Hampers.

Home and School is also looking for donations for the Bake Sale as well as volunteers to help with the sale.  Please contact Karla at klovehickey@gmail.com if you can contribute in any way.

We are just beginning a Holiday Fundraiser.  Packages will come home with the youngest in your family.  This fundraiser is completely optional but the personalized ornaments are so beautiful, we wanted to give our families the opportunity to order them.  They are excellent qualify and come in a little green holiday bag.  There is a sample in the office if anyone would like to drop by and see it.

The fundraiser begins today and orders must be returned by Monday, November 18th. The cost per ornament is $23.00. This includes the HST.

Here is the poster:

The deadline to have HotLunches orders in for November is today at 12:00 midnight. Don’t forget! We have a offering for everyday of the week now.

We wish everyone a safe and happy Halloween.
There was much celebrating at Greenfield today and
our staff makes sure to get in on the fun!

As well, a notice went home today from our Home and School.  There is a bake sale during Parent-Teacher Interviews next Thursday and Friday. Support is needed!  It is a fundraiser for our Christmas Hampers.  Here is a copy of the memo:
