Halloween at ÉCVS
Students are welcome to dress-up and wear costumes to school on October 31.
- Please make sure that your child’s costume is appropriate for school and respectful of all ages and the diversity of our school community.
- Please do not bring costumes with any real or fake weapons.
If you have any questions about the appropriateness of a costume, please ask your child’s teacher. We will do our best to share photos (respecting FOIP) so you can see your child’s class on Halloween.
Have a safe and happy Halloween!

Halloween Family Dance
As a Family Dance and a fundraiser, it is our hope that students will have a parent, guardian, or parent of a friend attend with them. This is especially important for younger students as it is an evening event. Tickets are still available on PowerSchool. Capacity is limited.
Food & Drink in the Gym
Black Gold School Division asks that food and drink not be brought into the gym during events in the gym.

The school will be closed for students on November 1 for Staff Professional Development and November 7 to 11 for Remembrance Day and a Midterm Break.
