Grade 3 Entry 7:45-7:55am
Due to the challenge of having Grade 1s and 3s entering through the compound doors together, we are now asking that all Grade 3 students use the SW doors (same as Grade 4) for all their school entrances and exits. In the morning prior to the warning bell, students are asked to proceed to the compound and wait for the bell before proceeding to the doors.
Halloween
On Thursday, October 31, students are invited to dress in their Halloween costumes.
If your child chooses to participate, please send them to school dressed in their costume that is comfortable for them to wear for the whole day. Inflatable costumes or costumes that include weapons, masks or face coverings or costumes of a violent or gory nature are not permitted.
We ask that parents not send candy, food or other items, as we cannot distribute or share them with students.
Photo Retake Day and Class Photos
Photo retake day and class photos will be held on Monday, November 4. If you would like your child to have retakes, please check the “retake request box” at the bottom of order form and send it with your child on retake day. If your child was absent on photo day, please send a note with your child indicating that you would like them to have their photo taken. We are looking for one more parent to volunteer from 8:00am - 1:45pm. Please email westgate@cbe.ab.ca if you are able to help. Volunteers are required to have a police clearance.
