Halloween

Students are welcome to wear costumes on Halloween for our Parade of Costumes to school if they choose. If your child does wear a costume, please ensure it’s comfortable enough for a full day of learning.

Please remember:

  • No masks.
  • No extra accessories such as wands, pirate hooks, or weapons, as these can easily get lost or broken. School staff will be leaving promptly after school to prepare for Halloween, so they won’t be available to help with any missing items.
  • Please do not send treat bags or candies to school
