Hello families,
I just wanted to let you know that I will be away from school from this Monday to the next. I had an amazing offer that I couldn't turn down - my friend and former colleague asked me to do her wedding photography in Jamaica. I did a massive amount of noon lunch supervision to earn the days off, and I will be gone for an entire week. Fred Bull will be the sub for our class. I have left him a few plans that he will work through with the class. I will upload the assignments on the blog so that you are all in the loop.
The main reason that I am writing to you is to tell you that our heat died last week. Our portable is 37 years old and the heater died. That means that a part had to be ordered and that it won't be here for a week. I went into the classroom today to plan of the sub, and it was below 15 degrees with a heater running on high. We can't have two heaters running because the breaker blows.
Please make sure that your child is dressed in layers tomorrow because it will be cold. If you are troubled by this, please contact your MLA or the SaskParty and let them know that you expect more for your children. I have contacted them myself, but your voice has more power. They really need to have plan for dealing with the aging infrastructure in our schools.
Thanks, and have a great week,
-Ms. Gallays
