Hallowe'en Party

This Friday, October 31, is Clairlea Spirit Day! The students and I have decided that it would be grand to have a party since it's also Hallowe'en. Everyone is invited to wear a Hallowe'en costume to school for the day. I encourage families to send in some food and drink items for the students to enjoy during their party.

Please do not send in foods containing the following ingredients:


  • nuts of any kind
  • eggs
  • soy
  • milk


If you do not celebrate Hallowe'en, your child may wear purple instead to celebrate school spirit. Celebrations and traditions of Canada are an important part of the Grade 2 social studies curriculum. I'm looking forward to seeing some fun costumes and to teaching the students a little about the history of Hallowe'en!
