UNSCHEDULED SCHOOL CLOSURES/WEATHER
Unscheduled school closures are beyond our control and unfortunately may occur at any time. Therefore, please ensure that your child’s teacher is aware of the arrangements for your child during these times. This information should be accurate on the demographic sheets that were sent home. Students MUST have an emergency contact in case we are unable to reach parents/guardians. It will be important to have contact numbers clearly stated so that you may be easily contacted. It is the responsibility of the parent/caregiver to ensure that alternate arrangements are made for your children in the event of an unscheduled school closure. Let’s work together to ensure the safety of our children.

OUTSIDE DRESS
As the colder months approach, Hazelwood is collecting donations of new or gently used winter clothing for our students in need. Items like coats, gloves, mittens, hats, snow pants and boots are greatly appreciated. Your generosity ensures that every child stays warm and comfortable throughout the winter season. Donations can be dropped off to the main office. Thank you for helping keep our students safe and supported!
COUNTDOWN TO CHRISTMAS
There is always a lot of excitement as we countdown to the Christmas season. More information will be shared as
planning preparations are more finalized. We will definitely be having some theme days and special classroom events. ‘Candles’’ The Musical (more specific details about tickets/date/showtimes)
This year's winter musical will be performed by the Grade 5 students at Hazelwood Elementary. They have already started practicing and cannot wait to perform Candles. As we move into December, our Grade 5 students are working hard to prepare a holiday musical featuring faiths and traditions from all over the world. We will be presenting the musical "Candles!"
If you are a Grade 5 parent/guardian, please keep an eye on your email in the coming weeks for communication regarding costumes, tickets and other performance details. We can't wait to see you all there!"
