Musical Theatre Presentation

Our students have been happily singing and dancing through the month of December.

Each class has been working on their choreographed song. Please continue to practice this song and dance routine at home. The lyrics and music can be found in your child's HAPARA music folder.

The dress rehearsal is happening on December 15th for students. Students should bring in their
suggested costume to make sure they are able to perform with it on.

We are inviting parents to see their child’s musical number on Friday December 16th. You are
welcome to join us between 1:05 - 1:45 to catch Mlle Carroll's class performance.

Thank you for your cooperation so that all can enjoy!

WE NEED YOUR DONATIONS!

It's that time of year again! 
The White elephant Sale is back to raise money for the grade 6 end of year field trip as well as for our Advent hampers. We are asking the grade 6s along with St. Cecilia Community to clean out their basements in search of gently used, clean items for our sale. 

Categories include:  books, toys, stuffed animals, CDs, movies, puzzles, games, Christmas knickknacks, jewellery (no used earrings please), crafts and household items.

Inline image 4We are also looking for used Christmas cards that we will re-purpose. Grade 6 students are asked to bring in any craft supplies (sparkles, buttons, scrap book paper, glue, googly eyes, etc.) to add Christmas cheer to our recycling craft. 

Any donations of wrapping paper, tissue paper, bows, gift bags and gift tags would also be greatly appreciated. This is in keeping with our Gospel value of Stewardship of the Environment.

Thank you so much for your continued support!

Inquiry

We have been working on the inquiry process. We are exploring different international organisations in which Canada participates. 

As formulating questions is one of the first steps... we have also been revising how to ask questions using appropriate sentence structure. Students are encouraged to revise these skills.
