Skating Field Trip for Grades 1-5

Grade 1-5 students are going Ice Skating on Friday, Feb. 2!

Please complete consent in schoolcash for your child to participate in ice skating by Tuesday, Jan 30. Parents are requested to contribute $5 for the arena rental & bussing costs.

Please ensure your child is dressed appropriately for skating with a helmet & ice skates (either from home or rentals) and warm clothing.

Bus Schedule

• Div. 1-6 students will leave Auguston at 11:30am and travel to ARC by school bus arriving at 11:45am. Skating time is from 12-12:45pm. The bus will leave ARC at 1pm.
• Div. 7-13 (Div. 13, Gr. 1 only) students will leave Auguston at 12:30pm and travel to ARC by school bus arriving at  12:45pm. Skating time is from 1-1:30pm. The bus will leave ARC at 1:45pm.

Parents are asked to pay for skate rental and/or helmet rental costs if needed.

Students need to wear a helmet and can bring their own or rent one there for $2.40. Last year the arena ran out of helmets so if students can bring their own bike or hockey helmet, that is preferred. Due to this being a school event, helmets are REQUIRED for all students on the ice.

Skates can also be rented for $3.55 a pair. Please indicate your child’s shoe size.

We are asking for 2 Parent Volunteers per class. Please make sure you have completed the annual Volunteer Process & have an approved Criminal Record Check. Volunteers will be contacted by their child’s teacher.
