We are very excited to announce that we are planning a special celebration of our students and school on Monday, June 25^th. While our grade seven students are away for the day celebrating the end of their time here at Holly, the rest of us will be looking back on another great year here at our school. We are planning a variety of fun things throughout the day.

Grade 4-6 Recognition Assemblies

We will be holding recognition assemblies for our grade 4-6 students throughout the day. Pease note that the format for our grade 4-6 assemblies has changed. We will be holding smaller assemblies by division in the Multi-Purpose room throughout the day.  Each student in grade 4-6 will be recognized for something special about him or her. Family members are welcome to attend the applicable assembly. See the schedule below.

9:00        Division 8 (Nielsen)

9:40        Division 6 (Martin)

10:25-10:55 EXTENDED RECESS

11:10     Divisions 7 & 9 (Bhullar/Whitely & Grazier/Parassidis)

12:20 – 1:05 LUNCH

1:15        Division 5 (Mullan)

2:00        Divisions 3 & 4 (Rowa & Retallick)

Plans for Our Primary Students

Our primary grades will also be involved in some special events on the 25^th. The kindergarten and primary classes will be outside on the playgrounds, upper and lower basketball courts and on the cement area by the daycare door between 1 and 3.  Classes will be coming out on their own schedule and enjoying some time exploring with bubbles, chalk, skipping ropes, balls and playground equipment.

Fun for All

As you can see from the schedule above, we are extending our recess for our “Holly Day.” Staff will be giving out freezies to all of our students at that time as a special treat (as usual, we ask that parents and relatives not be on the grounds during recess to help ensure student safety). We have also declared June 25^th “Black and Yellow” day and are encouraging everyone to wear our school colours and or school spirit wear to celebrate successes big and small.
