WINTER WALK TO SCHOOL
The Huron Eco-Team is organizing a Winter Walk to School Day on WEDNESDAY FEBRUARY 11th.
Remember if you live too far away to walk all the way you can park a few blocks away from the school and walk the rest. We look forward to seeing you outside and walking on February 11th.
And don’t forget to bring your mug so that you can get some hot chocolate when you get here. The hot chocolate is free, but any donations will be gladly accepted and go towards supporting Eco-Club activities.
PA DAY – FRIDAY FEBRUARY 13th
Don’t forget that this Friday, February 13th, 2015 is our next PA Day. On this day there will be NO SCHOOL for STUDENTS. Teachers will be conducting parent/teacher interviews in conjunction with the Term One report cards which students will receive this week. A reminder to everyone that if you scroll down to the very bottom of Huron Happenings every week there is a listing of all holidays and PA Days for the entire school year.
KINDERGARTEN REGISTRATION
Huron will be holding our Kindergarten Registration Day on Tuesday February 10th, 2015. Please help us spread the word within the local community. Children born in 2011 will be registering for Junior Kindergarten, and if not already in school children born in 2010 can register for Senior Kindergarten. (If a child in already in Junior Kindergarten you DO NOT need to register for Senior Kindergarten.) Please note – at this time we are only registering children who are IN DISTRICT for Huron. Families who live out of district are welcome to drop off a completed Optional Attendance form.
ROAD SAFETY AT THE BEGINNING and END OF THE SCHOOL DAY
Several of the bus companies that do pick-ups and drop-offs here at Huron are now contacting me, as well as the police, asking for support around the fact that drivers are not leaving the bus zone empty. We would like to remind everyone who drives that there is a clearly indicated “SCHOOL BUS LOADING ZONE” that must be kept clear for all the buses that either pick up, or drop off at our school. Please DO NOT park your car in this area which is just south of sidewalk leading to the front doors and extending south all the way to the driveway into the parking lot. It is very possible that there could be multiple buses arriving at the same time to pick-up and drop off students so this whole area MUST be kept clear of cars. Our bus drop off and pick up times are from 8:15 – 9:00am and from 3:15 – 4:00pm. Please make sure the area is kept clear of all cars during these times. And a reminder to all drivers that if a bus has its lights on you must not pass the bus in either direction!
