Hello Kindergarten Families!
We had a great day in kindergarten today. This morning, Mrs. Bridle and Mrs. Decottignies' classes went for our first orientation in the Learning Commons. Did you know that the Learning Commons is so much more than JUST a library? We can go there to sign out and return books, but there are also many different learning centres in there. We learned about the LEGO wall and the iPad centre today. We will all be getting our "LC card" which is how we will be able to sign out books. We will be going back to the Learning Commons next week to learn how we sign books out. Mrs. Osadec's class will be going to the Learning Commons on Monday for their first orientation. We have been talking about names and the importance of our names. Today we did a project with our names...please make sure that you take a look at our finished products when you come in for interviews next week. Did you know that a person's name is their most prized possession? We have been counting letters in names and comparing the number of letters in each person's name.

Please see below for information on Marshall Springs Middle School September 17, 2015 Dear Evergreen School and Woodman School Parents/Guardians: Re: Construction update for Marshall Springs School (Evergreen Middle School) The Calgary Board of Education is currently building several new schools around the city, including the new Marshall Springs School in Evergreen which was announced by the Provincial Government in February 2014. Over the past few months it has become apparent that the targeted opening date of September 2016 will not be met. The forecast construction completion date for this project has now been revised to March 2017 with a school opening date to be determined. There are a number of reasons for the delay: the school is on a small site that required a specialized design and it took longer than normal to complete an approved design; as well, initial responses for the design/build tender that were received were unsatisfactory and substantially over budget and could not be accepted. We are currently awaiting building permit approvals. This project has gone to tender and we hope to award a construction contract later this month. The plan is to begin construction by October 2015. A public meeting will be held in the fall after the construction contract has been approved and awarded. We will continue to update your community on the approved school development and construction schedule.

Sincerely, Sydney Smith Carrie Edwards Director, Area V Director, Planning & Transportation Enjoy the beautiful fall weather this weekend! See you on Monday. The Kindergarten Team
