Halloween 2020 at BG

BG Families,

Following Covid Protocols is critical every day, including on days like Halloween.

 

Friday, October 30, students may:

1. choose to wear costumes to school as in previous years
2. choose instead to wear black and orange
3. choose neither of the above options

 

If your child decides to wear a costume, please note the following:

– no weapons or props

– no costume masks (since they could interfere with face coverings)

– no inappropriate images

– nothing too scary or gory (we want all students to have fun and not feel scared!)

– costumes must be able to safely accommodate a face covering as per COVID protocol requirements

– students would need to arrive in their costume, wear it all day, wear it home

– staff can’t assist with putting on or removing student costumes

– students must be able to remove their costume independently to use the washroom

– students must be able to safely play at recess in their costume

 

Some classes may decide to have an in-class Halloween celebration.  These celebrations will continue to follow all Covid related protocols and safe practices (including physical distancing, hand hygiene, mask wearing, etc.).

– There can be no sharing or distributing food or drink

– Students may not bring items from home to share or distribute

 

There will be no parades this year.

 

Please reach out to your child’s teacher or to me if you have any questions.
