Happy Weekend, GCS Family!  Please take a moment to review the following announcements:

Father Son Bowling Night 

Call all GCS boys in Kindergarten through grade 6!  We invite you and your father, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers to an evening of bowling at Murphy’s Bowling Alley on Friday, March 16th at 7:30 PM. The cost per bowler is $8.00.  Please return your son’s permission slip and payment for each bowler to your child’s homeroom teacher before Thursday, March 15th.  To help prepare, Murphy’s has asked for the names of each bowler attending.

Family Fun Run

Attention Knights! Are you ready to get fit and have some fun? The GCS Family Fun Run is coming up this May! Grace Christian School is going to have their annual Family Fun Run, which is a 5k running/walking event that encourages physical fitness in our school and brings the community together. This event will be held at Grace Christian School on Saturday, May 5th. There will be registration forms sent home with your children today. Early bird registration is due by March 21 for a discounted price. Please return the form and money to your students’ homeroom teachers.  All the proceeds will go towards sports equipment for our P.E. program. We hope to see you all there at the GCS Family Fun Run!

A Knight To Remember Celebration:  You’re Invited

As we see God’s hand at work each day at GCS, we are growing more and more thankful for the individuals He has called to be part of this growing ministry.  We are delighted to be honoring three staff members from GCS on April 27th, 2018.  We would like to extend an invitation for you to join us in celebrating the significant contributions of Anne Laird, Elsie Barrett, and Neil Thompson throughout their years of service at GCS thus far.

A stand-up reception, followed by desserts and a celebration ceremony, will begin at 6:30 PM. Tickets can be purchased for $30 each at the school office beginning March 12th , 2018 and must be purchased by April 16th, 2018.

We also encourage you consider purchasing a brick in honor of these individuals who have invested a great deal in the lives of many families.  Bricks can be purchased using a donation card which will be given to you upon ticket purchase.  For more information about A Knight To Remember, please contact admin@gcspei.ca.

Skating this week will be on Friday, March 16th. We will be looking for drivers again.

We have been learning about “opposites” this week in class.   The children love putting the new skills they learn to music!  Singing about opposites can be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kFU__btMG4  and  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGeuA4iJ8vI

Have a great weekend.

See you Monday.
