UPDATE
We have enjoyed another busy week of learning at Copperfield School. We are finishing our last-minute details for the Copperfield Winter Celebration on Wednesday, December 11 and Thursday, December 12. Please refer to the Winter Celebration Update that has been shared via school messenger and posted on our website for specific performance times.
Over the course of the next few weeks, Copperfield students will have the opportunity to participate in some activities that will continue our work around kindness and school spirit.
Care Cards
We have learned about the importance of making a simple connection between people. We know how much a smile or “hello” can brighten someone’s day. Copperfield students will be creating written messages and pictures in winter cards during a school wide activity in hopes that our words will bring joy to others. These cards will then be shared with seniors in care homes throughout our city.
December 20 - Pajama Day
Students are invited to wear their favourite set of PJs to school on the last Friday before winter break. Get cozy and have some fun showing your Copperfield School Spirit. Students will still be going outside for recess on this day, so please ensure they have snow pants to wear.
Copperfield has heart!
Sincerely,
Colette Pedde
Principal, Copperfield School

COPPER APARREL
There are currently delays with the ongoing Canada Post strike. We are hopeful to have the order ready the first part of January. Sorry for the inconvenience.
CASINO
We have our fundraising casino event on Feb 8 and 9 at Pure Casino.
This event helps us raise over 70k which brings the newest tech and different events to our school, and we will need the help of the community to do it again.
Next week we will share our signup sheet and would love as much help.
