Carson Grove ES News - Week of May 27th
It’s almost June already! Wow! For the rest of the school year, the sun will be shining and students will be able to learn and play outdoors a lot!
To keep your children safe from the harmful rays of the sun, please consider the following ‘sun smart’ strategies:
-
apply sunscreen every morning;
-
wear long sleeve shirts;
-
come to school wearing a sun or baseball cap;
-
practise self-application of sunscreen with your child;
-
aerosol sprays are not permitted; and
-
send a bottle of unscented sunscreen in your child’s backpack so that they can re-apply throughout the day (label the bottle with your child’s name).
Spring Fire Drills and Lockdown Practice
We will be having our three spring fire drill practices and second lockdown practice of the year. Staff members will be reviewing the steps with students before the drills.
Friday, May 31st Spirit Day
This Friday is a spirit day. Please think about coming to school dressed in something that represents your favourite Disney, TV show/movie, or superhero character.
Welcome to Kindergarten Session for New Students in September 2024 on June 13th

Joke or Riddle of the Day!
A “Joke or Riddle of the Day'' is featured daily on the morning announcements. There are two ways to share a possible joke/riddle of the day: Students will be able to pass along jokes/riddles at school in class using a Chromebook; or, they can suggest one with help from home by completing a quick Google Form. Based on the overwhelming response levels in the past, not all jokes/riddles are used during the announcements. We do our best to find ones that match the time of the year and also try to make selections from a variety of classes.
