Memo for Garden Creek Parents and Guardians
Good
afternoon, Creeker Families:
I
have to tell you how proud I am of both our students and staff. Friday could
have been a difficult day with full-time mask wearing, but everyone was amazing
and got the job done! I know we have more time to go with this, but thank you
to them and to you for sticking to it!
Tuesday,
report cards will be issued . Also, this week teachers will
be meeting with parents through Teams or a phone call. – I hope that you
have an informative conversation with your child’s teacher. Make sure you ask
the questions you might have so that we can support your child in the best ways
possible. Thank you for your understanding that this must be done through TEAMS
or a phone call. Attached is an overview that was previously sent out by
our District
Two
Masks –
A reminder that your child needs 2 clean masks, daily. The weather outside can
make these cold and damp.
Silent
Auction
- This year’s Holiday Silent Auction is coming up
fast!!!! We have decided to extend the auction through the weekend
to encourage participation and offer the community more time to shop.
The auction will run from Thursday, December 3rd @ 2pm through Sunday,
December 6th @ 8pm. Many items have already been included in the
auction catalogue with more still coming in. Our donors have been
incredibly generous! If anyone still has items that they would like to
contribute, please do not hesitate to contact Amy White at amyewhite80@gmail.com
or Stella Park at stella.park@horizonnb.ca. For a sneak peek

Theme
Baskets –
your donations to the baskets are appreciated! If you have items to send
in, please do so by Friday.
Creekers
Helping Creekers Angel Tree – A friendly reminder if you would like to help
our Creekers in need.. If you can support through a donation on cashless, that
would be wonderful. Please see the attachment for more details on what is
needed or go straight to our cashless schools website
Chapter’s
Fundraiser is continuing on! - If you did not get around to
doing some online shopping at Chapter’s, have no fear.. you still can! https://indigofundraising.flipgive.com/teams/254019-garden-creek-school?fundraiser_id=1423635
I bought a gift card which gave the school 15% of the card’s worth and used it
to do my shopping 😊
Garden
Creek Christmas Concert has been Cancelled – I am sorry to say that, given the
orange status we find ourselves in, that the virtual Christmas concert is
cancelled for this year. BUT we will go back to our tradition when Covid is no
more! In the meantime, I would like to thank both your
children, our committee and our staff for the work they put into this. I
expect that your child will still have lots of fun with various Christmas
activities over the course of the next month . Thank you for your
understanding.
