Dear DG Families,
CSL Report Cards
Please make sure you can access Parent Connect. Starting this year, all report cards will be online and viewable on Parent Connect! https://cimsweb.deltasd.bc.ca/schoolconnect/parentsignone.aspx
We understand there are sometimes extenuating circumstances. As such, any parents who require a printed copy of their child’s report card are asked to please send a note or email to the teacher by Monday, December 2nd.
Christmas Concert – Two shows on Tuesday, December 17th – 1:30pm and 7:00pm
Exciting News – This year we are offering parents a chance to win the best seats in the house for our Christmas Concerts (this means, you can win reserved seating – and no lining up!).
One entry form per student was sent home last Thursday but you may enter as many times as you like! The entry form is available in the “notices” section of our school website
Contest entries are due Thursday, December 5th
Emergency Preparedness Supplies 
In an emergency situation, such as an earthquake, we know we it may take emergency workers some time to reach people. Just like families and individuals, schools must be prepared to take care of themselves (and any students and staff who are unable to get home) for a minimum of 72 hours. That requires a lot of planning and supplies. Over the past few weeks we have been working hard to inventory and organize the supplies in our Emergency Preparedness bin (the big blue bin on the field). While we are well stocked in many aspects, we have discovered that we are also lacking some important/required items. We are working with an EP supplier to remedy this situation quickly, at the most reasonable cost. Thank you to those families who already sent in the $5 EP donation (more info here). If you have not yet sent in your donation, please consider doing so.
In our emergency planning, we know we need to be able to keep students safe, fed, hydrated, dry and warm for up to 72 hours. But we would also need to keep them occupied.
To help with this, we are looking for donations of things like gently used board games, puzzles, Lego, card games, etc… (things that don’t take up too much space, or require power/batteries). If you have items at home you are no longer using that might be suitable, please consider donating them to our EP program. For games/puzzles, please double check there are no missing pieces. Donations can be dropped off at the school office.
For questions or more information, please contact Ms Tee stee@deltasd.bc.ca or Mme Greenhalgh egreenhalgh@deltasd.bc.ca
Cold Weather
With winter around the corner, we are reminding parents to ensure that students have what they need to be able to play outside in the cold weather (such as gloves, toques, jackets, boots). Please also take the time to label your child’s items, especially gloves.
Crossing Guard Schedules
Please find the link to the crossing guard schedule that will take us into the new year.
