Dear Parents and Guardians of St. Bernadette’s,
We are excited to let you know that next Friday June 14th from 9:30 -2:30 will be our Healthy Living Day at St. Bernadette’s CES. Students will be divided in cross grade groupings (K-5) and will have Grade 6 leaders. Groups will rotate through a variety of healthy living activity stations such as Zumba, Yoga, Soccer, Loose Parts Play, Basketball, Golf, Co-operative Games and Baseball.
The day will begin at 9:30 am and your child will have the opportunity to participate in 5 activities lasting 30 minutes each. Each group will attend the Cool-Down Station where they will be provided with a frozen treat and fresh fruit. We are looking for volunteers to assist in running this station. If you are able to help (minimum 1 hour), please email me at christine.dehaas@ycdsb.ca.
Students will need to be dressed appropriately for outdoor play. This includes a sun hat, sun screen, water bottle and weather appropriate clothing. We are hoping for a sunny day however we do have an indoor rain plan.
Special thank you to our Healthy School Committee – Mrs Scetto, Mrs. Spalla, Ms. Douglass and the YR Public Health Nurse Amber Clements. If you wish to get involved in this committee for the 2019-2020 school year, please let me know. This Committee meets approximately 4 times per year during the school day to plan Healthy School Activities.
Thank you everyone and let’s hope for sunshine.
Mrs. deHaas Principal
