The Warrior Weekly
October 28- November 1 at a glance
Warrior Week - October 28 - November 1
October 28 to November 1 is Mitchell Middle School’s annual Warrior Week!
The goal of Warrior Week is to continue to build on our strong school community.
The days for the week are as follows:
Monday – Warrior Wear Day
Tuesday – Age Day
Wednesday – Spy Day
Thursday – Classroom Theme Day
Friday – Costume Day and the Nickel Carnival
Guidelines for Costume day:
- When choosing a costume, please remember that we are a school that has young students in the building.
- Please choose costumes that do not contain violent themes as our younger students do come in contact with all grades throughout the day. This would include such things such as blood, weapons (knives, guns , swords and etc. ) and in general scary imagery.
- Face paint is okay (once again no scary images)
- No masks please – we need to be able to identify our kids and masks also tend to obstruct vision and can lead to accidents.
- Costumes that represent cultural groups/races are not encouraged.
See more details about Warrior Week in this slideshow.
PAC Fundraiser - 1/3 of our way to the goal!! - EXTENDED to DECEMBER 15
Hey Parents,
As a PAC, we get that lives are busy and asking friends and family over and over to buy whatever fundraiser we’re selling can get very tiring. So this year, we present the ANTI-Fundraiser Fundraiser. We are hoping to raise $3000 towards more exciting items for the school Makerspace (robots, VR, drones, etc). All students will be able to benefit from these learning tools!
With over 300 kids at MMS, if we raise $10 per kid, we’d reach our goal in a flash! But knowing we have a range of budgets, no amount is too big or small to help us reach our goals!
We have set incentives to get the kids excited about the ANTI-Fundraiser Fundraiser:
- At $1000 raised: Kids get an Extra Lunch hour Makerspace and open Gym Time
- At $2000 raised: Kids get 2 periods of ‘Choice Afternoon’ (Day Wonder-esque)
- At $3000 raised: Kids get 1/2 day of Day Wonder (each kid signs up for 2 x 1 hour
sessions) - BONUS: If we raise $4000 we will WAX Mr. Meads legs!
Donations will be accepted until November 1, so you have the whole month of October to donate. Note: If we do not reach our goal of $3000, we might have to do some of those other fundraisers through the year. Watch the school’s Instagram account for regular
updates on our collected donations.
You can send cash or a cheque with your kid to school or drop it off at the school office.Donations made by cheque to Hanover School Division of $25 or more are eligible for a tax receipt.
Please email your PAC members if you have any questions at mitchellmspac@gmail.com.
Thanks!
