On Monday October 31, 2022, SBN is looking forward to hosting a Halloween Dance for all the students. Music will be provided by our Intermediate students. Students are invited to dress up in their costumes on that day. Swords/weapons associated with your child’s costumes are unfortunately not permitted at school.
The dance times are as follows:
FDK 9:30 – 10:00am (Parents welcome)
Primary 10:35-11:15am
Junior 11:15-11:55am
Intermediate 1:15-2:15pm
When considering a costume, please note the importance of discouraging cultural misappropriation and the need for appropriateness of costumes when worn at school. Some suggestions for your consideration are:
-
-
-
- Culture is NOT costume
- Masks as part of a costume are discouraged (unless it’s PPE)
- Appropriateness – does it affect the moral tone of a Catholic school?
- Awareness of fear and evil – please be mindful of younger students, students with exceptionalities or phobias
- Please be trauma sensitive
- When in doubt, think Saint
-

We can’t wait to see all the costumes. We are confident that everyone will have a ‘spooktacular’ time!
