Notes from the Music Room
Dear families,
We continue working towards a successful Spring Concert for you. I ask that those of you that look at the blogs, please help your child listen to the song El Barquito de Cascara de Nuez. I included that in the blog two weeks ago or so. I am also very excited to announce that we will have Señor Waters as our accompanist for the Spring concert! I have to say that the children are terribly excited about performing for you. I hope you can all make it to the concert.
Registration for the 2023-24 school year is ongoing. If you are looking to register a younger sibling, please submit an application through the CBE website by February 14 at noon to be included in the lottery.
The next Dalhousie School Council/Parent Society meeting will be held through Teams on February 8 at 6pm. All are welcome to attend.
Friday, February 10 is Dress in a Pattern Day. Everyone is encouraged to wear their best pattern to school!
There will be no school due to Teachers’ Convention on February 16 & 17 as well as February 20 due to Family Day.
