Barrie Colts & Chocolates

Hello.  This is Suzanne Laybolt, Vice Principal from Birchview Dunes Elementary School.  I have 2 exciting reminders to share with our families.

First, a reminder that Birchview Dunes will visit the Barrie Molson Centre on Thursday March 6th in partnership with the Barrie Colts.  The Barrie Colts will host the Owen Sound Attach AND the Birchview Blazers.  Tickets are $18 each and can be ordered in the office or through your classroom teacher.  We are also looking for students to sing O’Canada on the ice.  Tickets must be ordered no later than tomorrow morning.  Please call the school to make arrangements.

Secondly, thank you to all families who are busy selling chocolate covered almonds to support numeracy, literacy and technology initiatives at Birchview.  We are eager to have chocolates sold and money returned to the school.  When one case is sold, your child will be entered into a draw to win many exciting prizes.  While our campaign runs until March 18, we would very much appreciate if your money could be returned to the school asap.   Thank you for your continued support and efforts.

 

Have a great night!
