Harrowsmith Hawks Clothing
We are pleased to offer our school clothing once again this year. The attached form is to be completed and returned to the school. Payment is to be made through School Day.

A reminder that if you have started a registration in the online registration program that it will need to be "submitted" before your child is officially registered.
April to June Milkshakes....JK/SK Ice Cream Cups
The April to June ordering for milkshakes is now open in School Day.
Deadline to order is March 18th, 2024.
Parents of our JK/SK students, we will be switching the Milkshake offering to a smaller ice cream cup like those pictured above. Our hope is that this will reduce the amount of waste that it is occurring now with the larger milk shakes. As well, we are hoping that the smaller portion size will also allow for our younger students to continue to focus on learning. Thank you for your understanding.
March 8th Update - The Hysterical History of the Trojan War.
For School Newsletter
School play update for The Hysterical History of the Trojan War.
Artists in grades 4 to 8: we are looking for you to join our creative team! You will be helping to paint the set, make props and even help with some costume items. If you’re interested, please see Mme. Phillips to sign up. Students in grades 3 and under will also get some special projects. Stay tuned.
We’re getting closer to show time! After the March Break, we’ll be requesting that all actors attend our after-school rehearsals on Thursdays.
Another thing to note is that we are now looking for costume items and certain prop items. Two weeks ago, each actor was sent home with a costume / wish list, and we have also posted a more comprehensive wish list on our website. We’ll continue to post wish list items on our website as things come up. Please send your requested costume items as soon as you can, and if you have anything on the wish list that you can spare, then we would be most grateful if you could send them our way.
Don’t forget to bookmark our site so you can check on updates, our rehearsal schedule, announcements, and performance dates: https://thetrojanwarplay2024.weebly.com/
