We have a field trip tomorrow to Victoria. Drop off at Fulford terminal around 7:30. Pick up is at 3:30. We are going to the Museum and then skating at Panorama.
Reports are being handed out today.
We are practicing our Christmas play starting next week. The concert is on the 17th and the last day of school is the 18th before the break.

We are now into October and there are a few housekeeping notes:
• please send in 20 dollars for supplies and 6.50 for the planner. We do use the planner regularly and it is a good place to give me messages or get a message from me.
The planner has a little "traffic light" in the corner for each day, green yellow red. A circled green means a good day in terms of behaviour and effort, yellow indicates minor issues, and red is a significant issue. There will be a phone call to accompany any circled red.
• please make sure any pets that come to school are cleared for the visit with Mr. MacQueen!
• Wed., Oct 8 is an early dismissal for parent/teacher meetings. I have a sign up sheet or email me for a time if you wish a meeting. We can also arrange another convenient time.

The school regularly sends out email reminders for various things and a weekly newsletter, please check.

So, our class is a 3 and 4 split with 22 students, 16 grade threes and 6 grade 4's. It looks like all kids have supplies and are equipped with good inside shoes. Make sure your child has a water bottle and a substantial snack and lunch.
I will be setting up an email list but the office is currently going through some bookkeeping changes so it might be a few weeks. I hope to do this blog once a week so you can check this out as well.
Homework will not be a regular feature. I do not intend to send home work unless it was unfinished or if families would like a little. Please read at home with your child and I can work out a home reading package if that is wanted.

We have had a great start with students learning routines expected behaviour.
I can be reached through email lmacqueen@sd64.bc.ca or my home # is 653-2018 if there is a need.
thanks,
Mr. MacQueen (Lindsay)
