Blacklock Blast – May 5, 2023

May 5, 2023

Good afternoon families:

I hope you have all been enjoying the sun! With this beautiful weather I wanted to send out a reminder to please send your child everyday with a water bottle to help keep them hydrated. We have also started kilometer club, please make sure your children are wearing appropriate shoes.

Please be advised that we had the wrong days in last weeks blast regarding the Scholastic Book Fair. It will only be open for families on May 9th to 11th from 2-4pm in the gym!

We have a few extra house shirts from this year. They are available for purchase for $5 each. Below are the sizes/teams that we have available. Please email Ms. Ruth (kruth@sd35.bc.ca) if you would like to purchase any. We can put the payment on School Cash Online or you can bring in cash.
