Skating Trip #2 is TOMORROW

  • We have three parent volunteers: Amala’s mom, Lucas’ Dad, and Justin’s dad.  Our ice time this time is from 10:00-11:00am at the Mlacak Arena. We will start walking soon after I take attendance (by 9:25am).
  • Students can bring a water bottle with them to the arena if they like. We will have 20 minutes to eat our regular lunches when we arrive back to WEJ at 11:45am.
  • Please dress warmly for the walk over and ensure proper footwear. With all those puddles we don’t want frozen feet – not fun for anyone.
  • Student will not be permitted to purchase anything from any of the vending machines at the arena.
  • All students must have a CSA approved skating/hockey helmet and skates to wear on the ice or they must stay back in another Gr. 3 supervised classroom. Students who borrowed helmets or skates last time from the school will do the same tomorrow.
  • Skating etiquette on the ice at the arena is the same that applies for public skating sessions -no games of tag, chasing each other, skating in the opposite direction, etc.
Fingers crossed the weather cooperates tomorrow morning!
