BCNS BIRTHDAY SNACK SIGN-UP

Birthday snack sign-up sheets for Nov. and Dec. are posted by Mrs. Blais’ room. If your child has a birthday that falls in one of those months, please ensure his/her name is on a date convenient for you to bring in a birthday snack for each child to help celebrate your child’s birthday. Please mark the date with the letters ‘OK’. Please check the schedule to see if the date listed for your child is correct. If not, please notify Mrs. Paddock. 

So we can keep the snacks nutritious, please read the information concerning food labels and hidden sources of nuts when considering your choice of a birthday snack (also see our Snack Policy).

Please reinforce with your child that there is no sharing of daily snacks or bringing in a snack for a friend.
