ePack #37 - Final ePack of the 2015-2016 School Year

Dear Families:

Our school year is coming to an end and this will be the final ePack of the school year.  It was definitely a busy year for everyone and it will be nice to step away for summer break!  I hope all of you find time to relax with family and friends in the coming months.  Please keep your eye on Twitter (@CommunityComets) and Remind text messages for news and updates about our school.  

Graduations:  We have our Grade 5 graduation tomorrow at 9:30 a.m. and our Kindergarten Graduation at 1:30 p.m.  Both ceremonies will be held in the auditorium.

Grade 5 Field Day:  Another perfect day for a Field Day!  Thank you very much to our parent volunteers for making this a fun day for our students!  

Flag Day Fun Run:  Again, we really lucked out with the weather!  Thank you again to our parent volunteers for organizing and motivating the children.  Special thanks to Erin Harding for organizing this fundraiser and to Jen Brillon for being our master of ceremonies!  Your generosity brought in approximately $3,200.00 for Community School.  

Reminders:  Please remember that Monday, June 20th is a full day of school and Tuesday, June 21st is the final day of school with dismissal at 11:30 a.m.  Also, children will be getting their end of the year report cards on June 21st.  

Kids Day:  Please note that Kids Day will be held at the Middle School campus from July 7-10, 2016.  

Postings:  Just a few postings in this week's ePack.  

That's all for this year!  Just 2.5 days left!  Have a great summer!


Here are a couple photos from today's Grade 5 Field Day.  Friendly game of Tug of War and our children at the cotton candy station!
