Dear Parents,

 

Thank you for returning your ticket order requests for the Chanukah Play. 

 

At this point we are giving out tickets for the evening show to all parents, grandparents and siblings living at home. All other evening show requests have been put on a wait list. 

 

All afternoon ticket requests have been accepted and there are still seats available for the afternoon show. If you would like to switch any of your evening show tickets to the afternoon, please let the office know.

 

If you have received tickets for the evening show and do not end up needing them, please let the office know as soon as possible so we can give them to someone on the waiting list. 

 

Children 3 years of age and older must have a seat.  Please reserve a seat for your child if they are performing with the Nursery and Pre-K classes.  They will come and join you after their performance.

Reminder: We are restricted in the amount of people that can be in the theatre so it is very important to know that only people with tickets will be allowed in the theatre. 

 

Thank you

 

 

 

The grade 2 class is doing a kindness project in memory of Dovi Sass. They are holding a warm coat drive and collecting clean, gently worn coats of all types and sizes. They will also be collecting winter accessories such as scarves, gloves, mittens and toques. Please drop off any gently used winter clothing to Morah Traci's grade two class and help someone in need stay warm this winter.

If you or your children decide that you want to donate your gently used books and magazines, please drop them off at the School office. Mr. Hadden will store the books and magazines until the big event. Please keep this in mind as you are fall cleaning. The grade three students will help sort the materials along with some parent volunteers. Used Book Fair volunteers are needed to help sort, price, and sell books. If you are interested, please contact the Mr. Hadden.

Grade 5-9 students will be preparing for the school science fair in February and are eligible to enter the City Science Fair in April if they follow the proper procedures. The City Youth Science Fair will take place this year April 19-21 during Pesach Break.

 

In order to enter the City Science fair, students need to follow the requirements which include using a large trifold.

 

Mr. Virine who is our Parent Volunteer Coordinator has graciously donated the majority of the cost of the large size trifolds.

 

Students are required to pay $5 each for the trifolds which can now be purchased in the school office. Please send in $5 to purchase a large size trifold.

We are looking for plant donations to place above the lockers to make our space more appealing. Please speak to Morah Orly and Mrs. Mashiah about the type and size of plant you would like to donate.
