Someone called the school today looking for a stuffed toy that was left at the Fall Fair on Saturday. After the phone call I found the toy. If you know who this toy belongs to please let them know they can pick it up at the school. I know this toy is very special to a little three year old child.
Weather is looking great for the Fall Fair tomorrow! If you have agreed to volunteer, please be at the school at 12:30. Looks like it is going to be a great day! Lots of fun activities lined up and lots of goodies to purchase at the Pumperknickle Pantry!
Ian Baillie Primary School is seeking community volunteers to assist with literacy for Grade 2 students. We are preparing to
implement a program called “ELF”. To quote from the organization's brochure:
“Elementary Literacy
Friends (ELF) is a volunteer-based tutoring program that helps Grade 2 students
who are struggling with literacy. ELF
provides training, materials, feedback and all of the support necessary for the
tutor to make a positive, lifelong impact not just on an individual child, but
on how that child will contribute to society throughout his or her life.”

There will be a meeting this evening at 6:30 to discuss and organize the upcoming Fall Fair that will be held at Ian Baillie on September 21st.
This has been proven to be a most successful event and could not happen without the volunteers. This year we hope to have some new events along with some old.
Please join us tonight at 6:30 at Ian Baillie Primary to help us organize our Third annual Fall Fair.
As well, Meet The Teacher is Wednesday, September 11 at 6:30. Please mark this date on your calendar.
