  1. School Council Movie Night  – November 21 –  6:30 pm

Westvale School Council is excited to be hosting Movie Night on Thursday November 21 at 6:30 pm.  The movie will be shown in the Gym and Multi-purpose Room and will begin at 6:30 pm. Doors open at 6:15 pm. Please feel free to dress in cozy clothes or pajamas, bring a blanket and pillow if you want, and your favorite stuffy for cuddling!

Students voted on a choice of movies last week, and they chose SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run. This movie is an animated adventure comedy. Set before the events of the television series, SpongeBob goes on a trip to Kamp Koral and meets some new friends.When his pet snail Gary gets kidnapped, SpongeBob and his new best friend Patrick must go on a rescue mission to save him before it is too late. The movie will also reveal the first time the characters (as kids) met at Camp…a magical moment that brings meaning to the power of true friendship.

All students, regardless of age must be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian throughout the duration of their attendance at the event. Students are to sit with their parents.

Students who are unable to respect movie volumes by ensuring appropriate volumes/quiet chatter or children who are racing around the gym instead of watching the movie will be asked to vacate so others are able to enjoy the film.

Council will supply nut-free popcorn to munch on during the movie.  Please bring your own bottled water in a reusable, take home container.

This is a great opportunity for our Westvale students to connect and build community spirit as we enjoy some time together.
