The Greenfield Science Fair will take place on Tuesday, March 10th in the morning.
We are looking for judges for our French projects. No experience is required and everything is clearly laid out for judging. Parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles or anyone interested in supporting our students are welcome. Please contact the office or send in a note to your child’s teachers if you can support our Science Fair on March 10th.
All after school activities are cancelled for today for schools in the PSB .
There will be no early dismissal today. Weather and travel conditions in all areas of the province are expected to be reasonable until about supper time.
A reminder that orders for March HotLunches are due on Sunday, March 1st at midnight.
You will be unable to place an order unless your orders for February have been paid.
HotLunches for March will be open for ordering on Sunday, February 23rd at noon.
The following notes are important:
We are seeing much illness with students and staff. It is that time of the year and some have been very affected.
With winter comes a higher probability of catching cold or flu. Complete protection from becoming ill from a cold or flu may not be possible, but staying away from others when you are sick, maintaining clean and sanitary conditions, washing hands often and getting an annual flu vaccination can help minimize the spread and severity of illness.
Good hand hygiene is one of the most effective things we can do! This includes washing your hands often. We hope parents will encourage this at home. We did have a Public Health Nurse in early in the year to show our students in Grades K to 2 how to wash their hands well and why.
It is very important that when children are not well that they stay home until they are feeling well again. Otherwise, the illness will be spread to others. We hope parents will keep this in mind.
Tomorrow is Red and White Day in celebration of Valentine’s Day! We are having a dance (with a real DJ!) in the gym from 12:00 to 12:30 for Grades K to 3 and from 12:30 to 1:15 for Grades 4 to 6. We hope that students will bring a toonie for the dance as this is our final fundraiser for the Kingyens family.
Bring your Valentines and wear red and white tomorrow!
This message was received from Phil Bridges, School Sports Coordinator:
“Due to the uncertain travel conditions expected tomorrow morning, the PEISAA Gymnastics Provincials are postponed to Saturday, February 15 same time and location.”
Tomorrow is Blue and Orange Day (Camden’s favorite colours!). If tomorrow does not work out, we will have it on Monday.
Next Friday, February 14th, we are having a Red and White Day and planning a Sock Hop. This should be a great way to have some Valentine’s Day fun.
Our great Greenfield Gymnastics Team will be at the Provincial Gymnastics Meet at Kensington High School on Saturday. We wish our team good luck! Thank you to Mrs. Webster for her support of these dedicated athletes.
Cookie Dough orders are due the first of next week. Please do your best to have them on Monday or Tuesday.
The Dental Clinic will be starting next week. Notices were sent home. Smiles will be brighter at Greenfield! Please call the office if you have any questions.
A reminder that Mrs. Connolly’s Grade 1 class is still collecting 100 items for the Food Bank and the 100th Day of School. Any non-perishable food items would be appreciated.
Greenfield staff enjoyed the first of our February Treat Days on Wednesday. Thank you to our parents for the treats and the appreciation.
A reminder that February HotLunches orders are due tonight by midnight!
