Your News... In Real-Time!

At Bruce Middle School we've decided to go paperless with our newsletter.

There are two advantages to this:

- The saving of paper is a savings in costs and more importantly another step in our ongoing commitment to sustainability.

- By offering news in this format, we can now provide our community with real-time news as it happens, instead of waiting until the end of the month to send out information.

Hello Grade 8 BMS Students and Families.




 The Grade 8 Farewell Dance is taking place Monday, June 27th, from 7pm-11pm, at the Heritage Victoria Community Centre (950 Sturgeon Road). Tickets will be available to purchase this Wednesday, June 15, at lunch, as well as every day next week at lunch or in the office at any time. The cost is $5.00 per student and is available to every grade 8 student who attends Bruce Middle School. Your ticket gives you access to all the evenings festivities, including the dance, a photo booth, pizza, drinks and snacks. Snacks and drinks will be available throughout the night, pizza around 9 pm. There is no real dress code….Anything from dressy to casual goes!

 

In order for the evening to be a success, the parent council is looking for some help for the following things:

 

- DECORATING: We are looking for a few student volunteers who would like to join us at HVCC Sunday, June 26th, at 7pm for a couple hours to begin decorating. We are also looking for a couple of adults who might be free in the afternoon (likely around 12:30 pm) on the 27th to finish things off last minute decorating etc. If you’re available for either of these, please contact either Tara or Tiina.

 

- CHAPERONES: We are still in need of a few parent chaperones for the evening of the dance. A schedule is being made for various chaperone duties. Please email Tara at tnb@mymts.net if you are willing or able to assist with this ASAP and you will be added to the schedule. 

 

- DONATIONS: We are looking for any donations. This could include canned drinks, bottled water, peanut free baking, a cake or cupcakes, fruit or veggie platters, snacks, props for the photo booth, or anything else you feel could add to the festivities. The deadline for donations is June 22nd. Please contact Tara or Tiina by this date to make any necessary arrangements.

 

A Bit of business:

 

***  DROP OFF / PICK UP INFO: Please let us know if anyone other than a parent will be dropping off or picking up your child by June 24th. We will have a list of every grade 8 student. They will need to be both signed in and signed out by either their parent or the person they previously let us know about. No child will be permitted to leave without this designated person at any time throughout the night. You will also be required to leave a contact number at drop off time in case a chaperone needs to get in contact with you.

 

- Since things come up, you can reach your child or get ahold of us at 204-612-3962 or at the HVCC number 204-837-9653 at anytime during the evening.

 

- If you have any concerns or questions, please don’t hesitate to contact either Tara or Tiina prior to June 27th. 

 

CONTACT INFO: Tara - tnb@mymts.net or 204-896-7201

Tiina - tcwin@shaw.ca or 204-885-2320 

 

Thanks in advance for your assistance and cooperation in making this night successful and fun for the kids!
