Saturday April 28

It’s here again!  The one, the only, Garden School Variety Talent Show!!! This is the 9th year in a row and it just keeps getting better.  You want piano performance?  We got that.  You want comedians?  We got that.  You want puppets?  We got that.  You want karate demos?  We got that too with loads of singing and dancing in between.  There will be popcorn, drinks and DVD’s from last year’s show.  Performers should arrive at 6:00 PM.

For future planning:  Our Kindergarten Concert, We Can Sing a Rainbow, will be on Tuesday May 8th.  The gym doors will open at 5:40 PM with the concert beginning at 6:00 PM.  Please be sure that your child has arrived to school by 5:45 and meets their teacher in their classroom.  The children are invited to wear colourful clothing for the evening.  Please note that all students will be dismissed from the Galley Avenue doors.

Mental Health Awareness Week at Garden Avenue is coming up on May 7-May 11, 2018.  Our grade six organizing team is planning an incredible event for our entire school, including dancing, yoga, and mindfulness activities during the lunch hour.  All students, from kindergarten through to grade six, will be able to join in at different times throughout the week. A big thank you to our group of grade six organizers who have done a wonderful job of planning this event for our entire school!

Get ready to celebrate your favourite book characters, Garden Avenue!  On Monday May 7 we will have our very first Book Character Day at our school.  Come to school dressed up as your favourite character and you can have your name entered into our draw for a gift certificate from Another Story Bookshop.  You can also write up a mini review about your favourite character to win another chance at a gift certificate from Another Story Bookshop.
