We know you are all anticipating the grade 5 farewell as much as we are. If you have attended the Grade 5 farewell previously, this year, it will be a bit different.  

School Council purchases cake for the grade 5 students. Please do not send any cake with the students on Tuesday! This is all looked after. Students will be having celebratory cake on the farewell day, however, this will be in advance of the farewell.   (if your child has dietary restrictions, kindly send them with a cup cake that meets their specific needs so we can all eat cake together)

Siblings - if you have a child in K - Grade 4 at CAS then your child(ren) may join you, sit with you at the farewell. You will need to send your K - Grade 4 Child with a note on the day of the farewell excusing them from class. This note will need to excuse them from class to attend the farewell. K - Grade 4 siblings who brought a note will be leaving class with their backpacks and coats and will go home with their parents after the Grade 5 farewell assembly. We will mark bus attendance accordingly. All children excused from class will sit with their parent. They will be supervised by their parents.   We will NOT be pulling students from class before the assembly if parents did not send their child with a note. We do not have the staff to accommodate this. This is the first time we will be trying this with our siblings. Please let's be great at this so we can do it again next year! 

Grade 5 students are expected to wear their best. Their cultural clothing, their best outfits or their formal uniform. If you are wondering if it is acceptable, then please wear your formal uniform.  We all know the formal uniform is always a perfect choice. 

Arrival time - families, please plan to be here no later than 1:00pm. The doors will open at 12:50pm. We will have special reserved seats for our parents who have volunteered with school council this year. Please do not be late as our grade 5 students, our guests of honour, will have a special entrance that you do not want to miss.   

Please do not park in Bus Parking.  

Following the farewell, there will be time for families to take photos in the gym and outside the gym. We are hopeful following the assembly and photos,  parents will take their children home with them. You do not need to wait at school until the end of the day.  

We are looking forward to celebrating our amazing Grade 5s with you! See you on Tuesday June 24.
