Dear Parents/Guardians,
On Thursday, May 7, 2015 (Rain date May 8, 2015), the students from Grades 1 – 6 will be going on a
field trip to the Fort Henry National Historic Site of Canada to participate in the Celebration of Dance
event hosted by KFL&A Public Health, in partnership with the Limestone District School Board and
Algonquin and Lakeshore Catholic District School Board.
Students have been working hard on the dances as part of the Health and Physical Education and Dance
and Drama curriculum and are now looking forward to celebrating and sharing these dances with other
students in KFL&A.
Students are asked to bring their own water bottle to the event and ensure that they are dressed
appropriately. This event is outside and students need to protect themselves from the sun by
following safe sun practices. They are also asked NOT to bring anything valuable on the trip.
As well as celebrating what the students have learned, it is important to promote what we are doing in
our schools and share the message of the importance of healthy activity living within our community.
Please be aware that participating students may have their pictures taken and/or be interviewed by local
media (newspaper, radio, television or on-line media) about the event.
Sincerely,
Lisa Bickerstaffe,
Principal
