Meet and Greet Tomorrow
Tomorrow is our school meet and greet evening. Tickets for the pre-ordered food went home yesterday. If did not get your tickets please send us a note in the note tote. There will be a limited number of items for sale tomorrow - please make sure you have purchased your BBQ items using our Cash Online program.
The meet and greet begins at 5pm in the school yard for dinner. The classroom will be open from 6:00pm-7:00pm to give students the opportunity to tour their guest(s) around the classroom.
Please help keep our classroom clean by not bringing food from the dinner portion of the evening into the classroom. Please finish consuming all food and drink before entering our learning environment. Thank you!
Please remember that the Meet and Greet evening is not an interview evening. Teachers will not be able to discuss individual student progress on this evening. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!
If you have not yet paid your $30/student activity fee, please log into the School Cash Online payment system in order to pay.
If you have a student in grades 1-6 please remember to pay the $10.00 agenda fee by using the Cash Online payment system or by sending the money in with your child. Kindergarten students do NOT have agendas. Agendas are for grade 1-6 students only.
Thank you to all the parents who have been sending in items from our classroom wish list. We appreciate your generosity.
See you tomorrow evening!

Welcome Back!
Welcome to the Hummingbird Kindergarten class at Georges Vanier! We are so happy to have you here in our class, and are looking forward to a fun-filled year. We hope you enjoyed your summer and can't wait to hear all about your adventures.
Just like last year, your teachers will be Ms.Quinn on English days and Mme Brooking on French days. Mrs. S will be in our class every day. For the first week of school, both Mrs. S and Ms. Quinn will be in the class every day. After that, Ms. Quinn and Mme Brooking will alternate days.
On the first day of school, Mrs. S, Mrs. Gogo and Mrs. Moulton will be out in the schoolyard by the big tree at 8:50 to help you figure out what classroom you will be in and who your teachers will be (hint: if you were a Team Hummingbird JK last year, you will be a Team Hummingbird SK this year). At 8:50, teachers will post lists outside the big windows by the tree so everyone can see who is in each class. We have lots of new friends joining our class this year, so you will meet some new faces in the schoolyard. If you are lost and not sure what to do, please find a teacher in an orange vest and ask them for help.
If you are moving on to Grade 1 this year, your teachers will also be meeting you in the yard on Tuesday morning. At 8:50 the teachers will post chart paper along the back wall of the school with teacher names and student names on them. This will help you figure out which grade 1 class you will be in - all you need to do is look for your name. If you need help, you can always ask any teacher wearing an orange vest, or come back to the big tree and ask one of us to help you.
We are so excited to see all of you tomorrow!
Love,
The Team Hummingbird Teachers
