Discuss with your classes the colours they could wear on that day. There will also be a Tuck Shop Croissant on that same day.

Year 2-6 Teachers:

Advertise the opportunity for Year 2-6 students to play hockey with Mr Legault and Mr Warner during lunch time in Week 8 in the Hall as per the following schedule:

This is optional. Just for fun!

All French Teachers:

• Keep collecting as many pieces of fabrics of all sorts as possible, as well as wool and thread, in preparation for La Grande Lessive. Students will use them to make a collage on their A4 piece of paper. The request has also been shared with families in Le Journal.
• Jenn has ordered PVA glue for all of us. She also has some shiny paper if you want to get some for the collages.
• As we are making collages this year, it would be preferable to organise thick A4 paper for your students (100 or 160gsm card) if you have any.

• By the end of Week 7, I will assume that if your team hasn't requested any pegs and/or lines, it means that you have all what you need. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1I9cciGQr20fnUOSCnrraz2K_DB_4XM_M/edit

  Thanks to the teams who have already completed the document to help me plan the quantities I need to buy.
