Good evening ladies & gentlemen,

Tomorrow is pajama day.  We will also have our Christmas/Holiday celebration tomorrow.  Thank you to everyone who is planning on bringing food.  It is also not too late to bring in your Secret Santa gift.



Please remember that you can get updates on what we have accomplished throughout the week on our Twitter account.  The link is www.twitter.com/jonathanwcarr1  (you may need to copy and paste the link into your web browser in order to access the page).




Tonight's homework is as follows:




Secret Santa - Many students have asked if we can do Secret Santa this year, and the answer is a big YES :)  The rules are as follows....
-$5 max gift
-Participation is optional
-Your gift must be wrapped.
-All gifts need to be at the school on Wednesday December 21st.
-We will do a gift steal.  If you want to do a "gag" gift, that is fine, but please make sure it is appropriate.

Christmas/Holiday Party - There is a sign up sheet on Google Classroom (Literacy) for our party on the afternoon of the 23rd (Friday).  If you would like to bring in food or drink, please sign up on the sheet.  Some people may want to bring a dish, and that is fine, BUT IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT THAT ALL FOODS ARE  NUT FREE.  WE HAVE SEVERE ALLERGIES IN OUR CLASS SO THIS IS TAKEN VERY, VERY SERIOUSLY.




Have a great evening!

As part of our Winter Electives program, our grade 4 to 8 students will have the opportunity to participate in downhill skiing, snowboarding, or snow tubing at Snow Valley Ski Resort this winter.

Permission forms have been sent home with your children.  Please return them to the school before December 9, 2016.

We will need several parent volunteers to help with supervision at Snow Valley.  If you are able to assist, please email Mr. Macris at alex.macris@yrdsb.ca.  Bus transportation, lift tickets, and rental equipment will be provided to volunteers free of charge.  

Volunteers will be working with groups of students.  As such, volunteers must have a Vulnerable Sector Check completed through the York Region Police well in advance of the trip.  A Vulnerable Sector Check form can be picked up from our school’s office.  Furthermore, parents who volunteer to supervise skiing or snowboarding must know how to ski or snowboard.  Parents who volunteer to supervise tubing are not required to tube.

Thank you.

Good evening ladies & gentlemen,

***Tomorrow is a big day for our classroom.  The Era Banner is planning to come and visit our gym class.  They will be taking pictures and may be asking students questions about what makes our school such a healthy, active school.  A consent form went home this evening.  The form must be returned first thing in the morning, or else your child will not be able to have their picture taken.  

As well, it would be terrific if each student could try to wear Rick Hansen clothing, or Rick Hansen colours tomorrow for gym class tomorrow.  Thank you everyone!

At Rick Hansen PS we strive to ensure that students are given the opportunity to live healthy lifestyles by...
1. Learning WHY we need to live healthy
2. Learning HOW to live healthy
3.  PRACTICING living a healthy lifestyle (healthy snacks, DPA, Phys. Ed., etc.)


Please remember that you can get updates on what we have accomplished throughout the week on our Twitter account.  The link is www.twitter.com/jonathanwcarr1 




Tonight's homework is as follows:

*Please return your media consent form for the Era Banner visit tomorrow.  Even if you do not have permission, please return the form saying you do not have permission.  (Due tomorrow)


*International Walk to School Day is on Wednesday.  We are hoping everyone walks to school on this day.

Math - Please solve the three math equations found on the Twitter account.

French - Rough copy (due Wednesday)

Science - 1. All of part A & B for your Ecosystems Project is due on October 5th. Part B needs to be drawn as a web that is displayed next to your ecosystem model.  You will need to construct your ecosystems at home and have them in class on October 5th. All notes and criteria are on the Science Google Classroom. As well, Ms.Glanfield is available on day 1 and 5 at morning recess for consultation.

Do you believe that police are justified (meaning it's okay) in using racial profiling, as long as they do it respectfully?

*Tomorrow is the Terry Fox run.  We would really appreciate if everyone was able to participate in the "Toonies for Terry" initiative.  We are hoping to collect a toonie, that will go toward cancer research, from every student in the school.

*Arts package forms have gone home.  We ask that they please be returned by Thursday.  Please don't hesitate to let me know if there are any issues.

Have a great evening!
