Good afternoon caregivers of Arnold H. McLeod School,

This is the weekly voicemail for Thursday December 7^th:

Please note that there will be no school tomorrow Friday December 8^th due to the Parent Teacher Interviews that are being held.

Our annual holiday concert will take place next week on Thursday December 14^th at 9:15 am and 12:15 pm.  We invite you to join us for “Dear Santa”.  Please note that doors will only open 15 minutes prior to each performance regardless of the weather conditions.  As admission to the concert, we are asking for a donation of a non-perishable food item for our local food bank as we are participating in Anglophone East’s annual Fill the Bus campaign.  We are also conducting a class competition for the Fill the Bus campaign.  The class from K-2 and 3-5 who collects the most items for the collection will receive a reward from Mrs. MacNeill.  The Fill the Bus collection date is Wednesday December 20^th.

Please note that there will be NO cafeteria services on Thursday December 14^th due to the Holiday Concert and the changes in our daily schedule.  We apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause.

Our annual Holiday Bazaar is back! It will be hosted by the AHM Home and School and will be held on Friday December 15^th.  Classes will visit the bazaar to buy gifts for their primary caregivers only.  All items are $1.

Fill the Bus collections continue until Wednesday December 20^th. AHM staff and students will be hosting Fill the Bus on Saturday December 16^th at the Superstore on Main Street.  Feel free to drop by and say hello between 9:00 am and 2:00 pm.

AHM will be hosting a holiday themed spirit week the last week of school prior to the holidays.  An information handout was sent out this week with all of the details.

It has been announced that Friday December 22^nd will be a half day for students. Dismissal for all walkers and daycare students will be at 10 am.  K-2 bus students will depart at 10 am as well. Grade 3-5 bus students will depart at 10:45 am.  Parents are asked to inform their daycare provider.

That’s all for this week.  Thanks for listening and have a great weekend.
