REMEMBRANCE DAY
Today Blacklock Fine Arts celebrated Remembrance Day through thought-provoking and moving pieces.  A big thank you to all of the staff and students for their hard work and dedication in making today’s ceremony unforgettable.  The last line in the song ‘One Tin Soldier’ is ‘Peace on Earth’.  I wish you all peace as we remember those who fought for our freedom.
       

FAMILY FILM FESTIVAL
Take some time this weekend to have a look at the film ‘Be Careful What You Wish For’, the second place winner at our Family Film Festival, submitted by the Olesko family, and the film ‘It Will Help You Learn’, the third place winner, submitted by the Jung family.

MISCELLANEOUS
A calendar magnet was sent home with each student.  If you did not receive yours or you are part of a split family, please come by the office to pick one up.

There are five weeks to go before Term 1 Report Cards are published online.  We would encourage you to try to login to your MyEd BC Family Portal Account as soon as possible.  This will ensure that you can get online and are ready to access your child’s report card on December 14.  If you have any trouble getting online, please feel free to contact the office for assistance.  For help on how to login, click here –> Reminder-Family Portal-Report Cards-Dec14,2018 and here –>  SD35 Family Portal
