Huron Happenings – Nov. 20, 2017

ENTRY INTO THE SCHOOL IN THE MORNINGS

A reminder to everyone that unless students need to come into the office in the morning, all students and their families should walk around directly to the schoolyard and be prepared to meet classes when the bell rings. Students and their families should not be coming into the school unless there is a reason to do so. As you know, the office is a very busy place in the mornings and it’s not always possible for us to answer the buzzer immediately when it rings. Please support Ms. Vallely with this and let’s try and reduce the number of people ringing the doorbell in the morning. Of course no changes for families coming to Superfriends in the morning.

HURON EARTH HOUR

Our Huron Earth Hour for November is going to be held on Friday November 24th from 2:20-3:20pm. As part of our commitment to being a Platinum Level Eco-School, this is an opportunity for our school community, every month, to focus on ways we can reduce our energy consumption. We turn off as many lights as we can and power down/turn off as many electronics as possible. Classrooms use this time for discussions and planning. We would encourage Huron families to think about engaging in similar activities at home as well.

SCHOOL COUNCIL MEETING

Our next School Council Meeting will be happening on Tuesday November 28th, 2017 at 6:00pm. Babysitting and pizza will be available for children – and all parents/caregivers are welcome to attend the meeting and be a part of the discussions.

Again a little nudge to anyone who is able to consider being our Secretary, or better yet Co-Secretary for the meetings. It’s truly not a hard job, and we even have a template for all of our meeting minutes, so all you need to do is fill in the template.

We know how hard it can be for anyone to commit to attending all meetings – hence why having two people co-share the job makes it much more manageable. School Council really does need this support so please give it some thought
