Triple P: On the morning rush hour!
For most families, getting out the door is the most stressful part of the day. But with a good routine, you can get
yourself and your family where you need to be on time.
The Triple P: Positive Parenting Program suggests that the key is to be organized. Set some positive rules with your
family and put a routine in place. Letting your children know ahead of time what they need to do in the morning,
like brushing their teeth and getting dressed, gives them a chance to practice these skills and saves you time.
Make sure you leave yourself enough time to get ready in the morning as well. Preparing lunches and choosing
outfits the night before can also save you time.
There is no one right way to be a parent, but Triple P can offer information, support and practical answers for youreveryday parenting concerns. You can start your Triple P experience today by registering for our upcoming eventsand information sessions atwww.MYtripleP.ca,or by calling 1 844 362-8593.
Kindergarten
This month in kindergarten, we will enjoy the excitement and anticipation of the changing season and the
upcoming holiday. Our focus in language will be looking at how we can make personal connections with the
poems and stories that we read. We will learn how much fun it is to send and receive letters and cards
through our post office centre. We will take a trip to the Ingleside Post Office, where we will deliver our
letters to Santa and we will visit the Senior Centre to sing Christmas carols. In math, we will learn to create
patterns and we will begin to explore 2-D and 3-D shapes.

On Wed. Nov. 5th, Ms. McNeill's secondary English and Art classes attended the National Arts Centre'sproduction of The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde. This classic example of a comedy of manners
had the students in stitches at times and speculating about why it is so important to be 'Earnest' at other
times. The elaborate sets and costumes were impressive and wonderful to look at. Prior to the show, everyone
had lunch and some free time to do some shopping at the Rideau Centre. Following the show, the group walked
over to the War Memorial where Mr. McIntosh shared some words to acknowledge the recent tragic events on
the site. Ms. McNeill would like to say thank you to all the students who attended as they were exemplary
students and she had a wonderful time sharing her love of theatre with them.
