LET THERE BE
PEACE ON EARTH
LET IT BEGIN WITH
ME
This month we will practice and celebrate the virtue of conscience.
God has given us the ability to know the right and decent way to act and then to act that way. We trust that the common Spirit we share inspires us and guides us to make good decisions if we allow our conscience to be wellformed.
A person of conscience allows prayer and scripture to influence him/her.
A person of conscience…


Chooses to do the ‘right thing’ and feels good about it
Can see his/her wrong-doing and feels bad


Says ‘sorry’ and tries to make up for mistakes
Keeps promises
*All Virtue information has been added to the front pages of your child’s agenda.*

Bullying Prevention Week is being celebrated this year from Nov. 16-20. Students and staff at Christ the
King School are planning a number of Spirit Days as well as a variety of activities to build awareness about the effects of bullying. To end off the week, Friday
November 20 will be “Think and Wear Pink” day.
Thank you for submitting names of your loved ones that have passed away for our Book of Remembrance. Throughout the month of
November as we honour All Saints and All Souls day it will be placed in the Marion Yee chapel and our prayers will be offered on a daily basis.
A Provincial Progress report will be sent home on
Tuesday November 17 th for students in Grades 1-8.
Interviews will be held in the evening on Thursday November
19 th (as needed for particular students). A confirmation notice will then be sent home with the
Progress Report on November
17th. The interview is intended to complement the
Ontario Progress Report by enabling parents to communicate with teachers, to offer useful information and to ask relevant questions about their child’s progress in order to support their child’s learning.
Christ the King School is proud to have The Parenting and Family Literacy Centre in our school.
This program, headed by Mrs. C. Tsang welcomes parents and caregivers with young children from birth to age six to engage in learning and playing together.
The program is FREE and open from Monday to
Friday, 8:45a.m. to 12:30 p.m. The goal of the program is to help young children make an easier transition into kindergarten, to foster their early literacy and numeracy skills as well as to support parents and caregivers by enabling them to be successful in their parenting role.
Candies for kids
Every year in October, the Candies for Kids campaign gets underway and CTK is going to be a part of it this year. Children are encouraged to share their Halloween candy to support children around the world in an effort to stimulate appetite and activate saliva production. We have so much, even too much, that children find it easy to share their wealth.
Happily, when candy is shipped in early November, it sometimes reaches its destination by Christmas. What a joyful way for our children to celebrate Christ’s birth with their peers around the world.
CTK Helps Students Learn
Another way we are supporting Dr. Simone and his organization Canadian Food For Children is to collect 3
Ring (hole punched) lined paper.
Many binders were donated to the organization, but no paper. So we are going to do our part to help fill these binders. Please support these students by bringing in paper for them so that they too can learn!
All Halloween candy and paper are to be brought into school by November 12, 2015
Thank you for sharing and helping to make a difference in the lives of many children around the world!

During the winter season the school receives calls from concerned parents as to how we determine when children will or will not be allowed outside for recess.
Dufferin-Peel CDSB policy uses a wind chill factor of –25 C as the determining temperature. With the arrival of colder weather, students are reminded to dress appropriately (hats, mitts, etc.) and to wear all clothing that they came to school in.
For health reasons, we ask that students have indoor shoes that are kept at school. Another reason for indoor shoes is that in the event of an emergency evacuation, students will not have the opportunity to put boots on.
Please make sure clothing is labeled—this will help in the return of lost items.
With the winter season fast approaching, we would like to remind you of bus cancellation procedures. Occasionally, because of inclement weather or other emergency situations, buses may have to be cancelled. Information regarding bus cancellation and other emergency information announcements can be obtained by listening to the following radio stations or by visiting www.dpcdsb.org

Make sure the announcement is for the Dufferin-Peel Catholic District School Board. If transportation is cancelled, the schools will remain open except under extraordinary circumstances and when an announcement is made that Dufferin-Peel schools are closed. If buses are cancelled and parents or guardians choose to bring their child to school, it is also their responsibility to pick them up at the end of the day.

The board will not be responsible for any cost incurred through the use of personal data plans
It is the student’s, and/or parent/guardian’s, responsibility to address normal and reasonable security measures such as maintaining anti-virus protection and security patches for software for the protection of those sharing the wireless network
