So many of you offered to volunteer that we had to pick names out of a box! Thank you, thank you so much.
Owen's mom and Calum's mom were the winners.
However, we love families and if you wish to come, please do. Little ones in tow or not it should be a great day.
On that day we will need to leave school promptly because the ceremony that includes us starts at 10 a.m.
At the Royal Winter Fair next Friday, the media will be present. From the September information that was provided by families, I have 3 families that said no to media.
Could all families please confirm via e-mail if you want your child's photo taken, or filmed for the news etc. It is doubtful that names will be required.

In your child's backpack today is the form for the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair. We go next Friday, November 2nd.
As the first school to register, we have been invited to an opening ceremony with the lieutenant governor at 10 a.m. for the 90th year of the Fair. We need 2 parents to volunteer to accompany us. The chosen volunteers are usually from the families that return the form promptly. If you are not a volunteer and still wish to come with us, the cost is $10 at the door.
The cost per student is $13.00 and it also covers TTC tickets.
