Halloween at School


Halloween is approaching quickly! Our Halloween parade will occur on Monday, October 31st at 2:15 p.m.  This parade has been a Bayview Hill E.S. tradition and gives our students a chance to show off their costumes.  Our class will walk through the junior and intermediate hallway as well as the lower primary hall in our costumes.

With such a rich and diverse population in our community, many families have different beliefs; and, because of religious, personal or cultural reasons, some families do not wish to be involved in Halloween activities.  If you would like your child to opt out of Halloween activities, please let me know through the agenda as soon as possible. 

In addition, we ask that masks, weapons and/or toy weapons (e.g., nerf guns, swords, sticks, bow and arrows, etc.) remain at home.  Face paint can also get very uncomfortable and messy for children to wear the entire day.  However, if a costume requires face paint, it may be applied before arriving to school.  Students can wear their costume or bring their costumes in a bag (labelled with their name) in the morning and they will have an opportunity to change before the parade. Thank you for your cooperation.
