September 26th – 30th

Planning Day was exciting! During the year, we will share our ideas to support our school vision:   “Striving together to achieve our potential for a better tomorrow.”
-Thank you to the parents who returned the Registration Verification Forms sent out last week!  If you still need to return them, please do so as soon as possible.  A new one is available by calling the school!

– Thursday is the Terry Fox Run!  This is a non-competitive event where people get to raise money for cancer research in Terry’s name. Participating allows us to celebrate Terry’s legacy and help keep alive, his dream of finding a cure for cancer.  All Bert Ambrose students will walk or run at 1:00 pm on Friday and parents are welcome to join in!  If you would like to support this event please drop off funds at the office anytime this week.  Thanks goes out to Mrs. Fraser for organizing this event!
-If your child plays soccer please check game times and tournament schedule issued out by your child’s coach or phone the office for more information.
-A Cross Country Run is scheduled for Upper Pine on Wednesday.  Last week, we had over 60 runners involved at Taylor!
-ORANGE DAY -Every Child Matters!  September 30th has been declared Orange Shirt Day.  People wear orange shirts to remember the experiences of former students in Residential Schools and as an affirmation of our commitment to ensure that everyone around us matters.  Our 9:00 am assembly will explain Orange day and we encourage students to wear an orange shirt or an orange button provided by Bert Ambrose School.  Grade 5 students will also attend an information session at the Culture Centre. Thanks goes out to Mrs. Cooper for organizing this important day!
