After repair work last week and the reopening of the school today, Alta Vista School Council is pleased to invite your family to Family Movie Night on Friday, November 29, 2019 (save the date). We’re looking forward to a fun event and a chance to unwind with our school community.
We’ll be showing The Secret Life of Pets 2 rated PG (1 hour 26 minutes). Doors and concession open at 5:30 pm, and the movie starts at 6 pm!
We’re excited to be running this event as a fundraiser to support AVPS’s “Nature Warriors” club. The Nature Warriors will use the proceeds from this event to help them buy materials to build “seating boxes” around the trees in the Kinder yard to enhance their viability and growth. Such a cool idea to care for our school’s outdoor environment!
In order to keep this event as eco-friendly as we can, we’re encouraging families to bring their own reusable dishware for their movie night food and snacks, as well as using the reusable dishware from breakfast club. We’ll also be phasing out the sale of bottled water, and encourage families to bring cups or water bottles that can be refilled in the kitchen.
Admission is free! Juice, popcorn, pizza, samosas, hot dogs and treats will be offered for sale as a Council fundraiser. We will also be offering coffee and tea for adults at a new “parent café,” (reusable mugs encouraged).
Children are welcome to wear their PJs and bring blankets, pillows and stuffies to get comfy in the gym. Children must be accompanied by an adult.
Volunteers needed!
As always, the movie night organizers are grateful for the support of parent volunteers to help make movie night events a success. In particular, we’d welcome any bakers who’d like to contribute peanut and nut-free treats or snacks. We will be coordinating volunteers for this event via Signup Genius.

We hope to see you and your family there!
