Un- less it is raining very heavily, students will be going outside at recess and lunch to play. We thank you for ensuring that your child (ren) come to school dressed for the weather. At Kelly Creek, we appreci- ate the wonderful outdoor play are- as we have and the value of fresh air activity for all our students. Dress for the Weather! The Ministry of Education has added two non-instructional days where students will not be in session. These days have been set aside for teachers to plan for the implementation of the new Provincial Curriculum and are in addition to the current Professional Development set in our school calendar. The two additional dates are: Monday, February 15, 2016 and Friday, April 15, 2016 Thank you. Board of Education School District Calendar Changes Dear Parents, The fall of 2015 has been a particularly positive and active one for our school. Our entire staff has provided innova- tive and exciting learning opportunities for our students. We are very fortunate to have a wonderful, dedicated and talented staff and a highly supportive school community of parents. Together we continue to provide an excellent partnership between home and school. Thank you to all staff and parents! As this will be the last notice home prior to the holidays, we would like to extend to each of you sincere best wishes for a wonderful holiday season and a prosperous and successful year in 2016. Sincerely, Mr. B. Rounis Principal’s Message Mark December 10th in your calendar for an exciting time with Science World from Vancouver!
