We have a very busy start to the month of October in the Grizzly Den. Here’s a highlight of what’s to come:

BLUE & WHITE DAY
The Toronto Maples Leafs are coming to town again this year and we’re celebrating with a Blue & White Day on Wednesday, October 5. Some classes have chosen to visit the community practice at the Centennial Centre from 11:30 – 2:00pm. Letters and permission forms will be going home Monday, Oct 3, which will need to be returned signed in order to participate. Parents who wish to attend as volunteers should contact their child’s teacher.

Performance of Julius Cesear
Ms Bussotti, Mrs. Billingsley, and Mr. Dobie’s classes will be headed to the Rene Cassie Theatre in Bracebridge on Thursday, October 6 in the afternoon for a community performance of the Shakespearan classic featuring our very own Ms. Bussotti.
