Spirit of Giving - Winter Celebration
We would like to invite families to join us to celebrate the Spirit of Giving on December 11th from 5:30-7:15 pm. We will be hosting an open house during this time, where families can participate in various activities that celebrate the season and give back to our community. We will be donating all of our creations to various local organizations. We also encourage families to bring a nonperishable food item for the Calgary Food Bank that evening. Please join us any time between 5:30 and 7:15 pm for family fun, including crafts, singing, stories, refreshments, and more. Since this is a family event, we expect all attending students to be supervised by their families.
Calgary Food Bank
Ramsay School will be collecting food donations for the Calgary Food Bank starting next Wednesday. We will have donation bins across from the main office from December 3 until December 11. Students are welcome to donate non-perishable food items in their original packaging. The Calgary Food Bank is excited to receive any non-perishable food; however, at this time, they are in most need of: pasta, canned tomatoes, peanut butter, diapers, and baby formula.
Outdoor Clothing and Shoes
Winter Weather is here! Please ensure that your child has the following each day at school:
1. Indoor Shoes – To keep learning spaces clean, all students need to ensure they change into indoor shoes once inside the school.
2. Warm Outerwear – Please ensure that your child arrives at school with warm clothing to go outside.
This includes but is not limited to: Hats, mittens/gloves, scarves, a winter coat, snow pants and boots. Students will be going outside for recess, lunch and class activities when the temperature is above -20 degrees Celsius.
Inclement Weather
CBE Guidelines recommend that students remain inside when the outdoor temperature reaches -20 Celsius or colder with the windchill. We are unable to provide separate indoor supervision for students who are not dressed for the weather or who are ill. Please see our webpage for more information: Winter Weather Reminders
