This is a long post so make sure to scroll all the way down to see it all!

Donate your Halloween candy for a good cause!

Tomorrow is Halloween!  Please remember that we do not want students wearing costumes to school or candy sent in.  One thing you can do with the candy is donate it!  We will be accepting donations of Halloween candy for the Children at the Dana Farber Cancer Institute.  This is a great way to get rid of some of that unneeded candy!  There will be a collection box in the main office at HBB!

Mr. Gobeil

For those who do not already know, we are going to be without Mr. Gobeil for the next few weeks as he has undergone a medical procedure.  He has already had the procedure, he is recovering well and we look forward to his return!

In his absence Mrs. McDonald and Mrs. Doak will be doing there best to step in and help out and we have brought in an extra set of hands in Mr. Craig to assist with supervision in areas such as lunch and recess.  While there is no replacing Mr. Gobeil we have a solid plan in place and we will be holding down the fort and looking forward to his return.

Power of One 

The Power of One was here last week and all student heard a powerful message about bullying and about the fact that we all have the power to stop bullying and to create a safe bully free school.  I would encourage you to ask your child about the oath they took and signed and what they learned from this assembly.  The next time you are in the school look around the main lobby for the oath which we will be hanging with all student signatures.




Bill Harley

We have also been treated to a visit this week in grades 2 and 4 from Bill Harley.  All grade 2 and 4 students were treated to a concert/assembly from Bill and all grade 4 students had a classroom visit from Bill to discuss his book The Night of the Spadefoot Toads.  This book was the mentor text for the new unit of study in 4th grade and students seemed thrilled to have a visit from the author of the book.




Tea in Mrs. Medeiros' room

Last week I was treated to a visit to Mrs. Medeiros' room to join in as she invited all parents to hear students read their writing that were prepared for the visit.  I had a great time and the students all did a wonderful job!


 
Big Blast

The Big Blast has quickly turned in to one of my favorite events of the year.  This year was so much fun and I want to thank our PTA again for all their efforts!  I also want to thank all the parents who attended this event and for all your support.  All the proceeds raised will go directly towards funding programs for students here at HBB, so again, THANK YOU!

















Character Word of the Week Winners

Lastly but very much importantly....congratulations to our Character Word of the Week Winners for this week.  Great job and keep up the good work!
