There are TWO days/evenings of Grade 6 Christmas Musicals.

Wednesday, December 11 @ 1:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. 6-Barrett, 6-Chippett, 6-Crummey

Thursday, December 12 @ 1:30 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. 6-Barnes, 6-Maloney, 6-Hawco, 6-Kiss

Both evening shows will be selling 50/50 tickets as well as hosting our first ever Baked Goods Silent Auction to offset the cost of a new set of spotlights we have purchased for the performing arts department here at JRI.  It’s a great time to get some delicious baked goods in time for the Christmas season. *If you’re interested in donating a baked good for this event, please email Mrs. Coady at your earliest convenience deannecoady@nlesd.ca 

Grade 6/7 Band Concert

Parents and Students should be aware that our school photo retakes will be done on the morning of Friday, December 6th. Students who wish to have retakes done should bring their package sheets back with them for their photo retakes if possible.

Our Fall Book Fair will take place during the Week of Nov. 25 – 29th. Students will have the chance to visit the Book Fair during the week and make a list of books they would like to purchase during their second visit to the Fair later in the week. We hope that parents will understand that reading is an important part of their child’s development and reading individually is a great way to encourage creativity and learning.

The Book Fair will be open during the evening of Nov. 28th during Parent-Teacher meetings for any parents who would like to stop by and take a look at what is available. Books make great Christmas gifts from Aunts, Uncles, Grandparents, etc…

Help support our school library!!
