Good Afternoon,
Hope everyone has been enjoying the great stretch of weather. Just a few updates: 1. Movie night Oct.26 PAC presents Hotel Transylvania 3 Doors open @ 6:15pm Wear your costume, there will be prizes! There are still some volunteering opportunities with set up, clean up, and collecting admission at the door. Please email if you are interested in helping. 2. New school build update open house The open house was been re-scheduled for Thursday Nov.8 from 4:30 to 7:30pm. The city has sent out invitations to the neighborhood and an email has been sent out from the school. Encourage, if you can, to attend to see how our new school will look like. This is an opportunity to ask questions and understand the build process. There are some great features included but unfortunately due to the build budget landscaping extras like the amphitheater and rubber matting surface for the playground may not be covered. It will be up to PAC to help cover the cost of such extras. Last estimate, construction may start as early as Spring 2019. PAC is currently working to gathering more information and will soon present our findings and encourage feedback/comments on what items we want for our new school. 3. November PAC meeting This meeting has been re-scheduled a week earlier due to the principal’s availability. The meeting will be Tuesday, November 6 @ 7pm. 4. Volunteering Everything from hot lunches, Begbie fruit and vegetable program, to contacting VSB for new build information all rely on parent volunteers. With the anticipated increase in coordinating and running fundraising events/activities, we will need more volunteers. Volunteering opportunities will soon be posted on our website and PAC message board in the school. If there are any other areas that you can help, please feel free to contact us. 5. PAC Group Email Thank you to everyone that has signed up for our PAC group email. If you know anyone that would like to receive PAC email, please ask them to fill out the consent box on our website or send an email to us consenting to receive PAC email. We greatly appreciate the continued support from parents and the Begbie school staff. This is our school and the PAC is here to support. To achieve the best school environment for our children, we have to all come together and get involved. If you have a comment/suggestion or a school related issue, please feel free to contact us. Best, Bryan (PAC Chair) Good Morning,
Hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving long weekend. At our PAC meeting yesterday, we had a parent present a great fundraising idea with Neufeld farms. We as PAC, are very interested in pursuing this fundraiser and are looking to initiate probably in the Spring, please stay tuned. PAC events coming up: 1. Hot lunch - Oct. 12 (apologies for the very short turn around time to hand in order forms, we are trying a catering company) 2. Movie Night - Oct. 26: We will be showing Transylvania 3. Wear your costumes because there will be PRIZES. Details will be sent out soon. 3. Hot lunch - Nov.2 PAC is also currently gathering information about the new school build to better understand what we be required financially by our community. We will share this information with the parents so we can all be on the same page and come together to set goals to support our new school. Tentatively, there will be a community open house on Oct.25 @ 6:30pm to give a project update on the new school which should include design/schematic of the new school. Will email more details about this event if I get more info. I encourage everyone to come out and take advantage of this opportunity to get informed and ask questions. Please reach out to us if you would like to get involved in any capacity. PAC always welcomes comments/suggestions or if you have a school related concern/issue.
