Procedures

Buses and Dismissal

Each day a new bus schedule is hung up on our classroom door. The children check if they have any bus changes or if they are to take their normal bus home. 

Upper Primary students in grades 3-5 are permitted to change buses (Upper Primary Reception 1 students are not allowed to change buses).  Please keep the following in mind as you plan and prepare for the new schedules over the coming weeks as many of the activities require a bus change request that MUST be submitted at least 2 school days in advance of the activity to provide ample time for processing the request.
Please note that classroom teachers are not authorized to make any transportation/dismissal changes.
All bus change requests must go through the LP/UP Bus Request website.

Birthday Celebrations

Birthday celebrations are greatly welcomed in 3B2! Please feel free to send in birthday treats with your child or bring them in just before lunch recess to celebrate.  Please be sure these treats are NUT FREE as we do have nut allergies in our classroom.  

Celebrations typically begin at 10:45/10:50 am.  

Snacks

Snacks are an important part of our morning when it comes to energizing us and keeping us satiated until lunch.  It is essential that these snacks are nutritionally balanced and healthy.  We had a discussion about what different snacks do to your energy level.  Here are some ideas for a healthy snack choice: yogurt, hummus, and cheese.  Combine any of those with a fruit or vegetable and you have a balanced, nutritional snack.  Sweets should be saved for a mini treat after eating lunch.  Please be sure to discuss this with the person preparing snacks and lunch for your child.
