Dear Parents and Guardians of Grade Nine students,
The Munroe Junior High Grade Nine Farewell event will take place on Monday, June 29th, 2015. The
Farewell Ceremony will take place at the Holy Eucharist Parish Hall (across from Polson School) from
4:30pm to 5:30pm. Family and friends are invited to attend this ceremony. Awards and grade nine
certificates will be handed out at this time. After the ceremony, the grade 9 students and their teachers
will be celebrating with a dinner and dance at the hall.
The grade nine students should arrive at the Holy Eucharist Church Hall at 4pm sharp to prepare for
the ceremony. There will be an opportunity for pictures between 5:30pm and 6pm at the hall or on the
school grounds. Students will then be asked to enter the hall for the evening from 6pm to 10pm.
Students are expected to remain in the venue at all times. If a student chooses to leave the event early,
they will not be re-admitted to the venue. It is an air conditioned facility and staff must ensure that
students are supervised at all times. Students may be picked up from the Holy Eucharist Parish Hall
parking lot at 10pm. Outside guests are not permitted to attend this event.
The cost to attend the Farewell Dinner and Dance is $35 per student (cash or cheque payable to
Munroe Junior High School). There is no cost to participate in the Farewell Ceremony.
As this is a farewell celebration of the students’ experience at Munroe Junior High, please note that there
is no need to buy or rent expensive formal clothing. Students may dress in semi-formal attire. As this is a
school function, the school dress code is in effect. If your child has purchased an outfit that does not
follow school dress code (ex. Shoulder-less dress, spaghetti straps, muscle shirt) boleros, cardigans,
scarves and shirts should accompany them.
Please sign and return the form attached, along with $35, by Friday, June 12th, 2015 to allow your child
to attend the Farewell Dinner and Dance on June 29th, 2015.
If you have any questions or concerns about this day, please don’t hesitate to contact us at the school at
204-661-4451. We are looking forward to this exciting day!
Sincerely,
Grade 9 Team
