April 16, 2015

Students are continuing to work on their letters for the Great Canadian Mail Race. Once we are done writing our rough draft we will be preparing to send a good copy to our respective schools. If you haven't narrowed down a province and place within that province that you would like to write to, then please have this conversation at home.

We had a wonderful day at the pond where we observed and discovered different ways that seeds travel.  We found seeds that travelled by wind, on animal fur, through animal waste and we even got to watch bees pollinating. We will continue to further explore how seeds travel next week.









In music, students have been continuing to strive to move up a colour in belt testing. Make sure that you are practicing your precorder so that you can move onto another colour! Ask us what belt we have earned! As Music Monday approaches quickly, please make sure that you are reviewing the lyrics and the song, "We are One" at home. This is an important day to appreciate and draw awareness to the importance of music education in Canada!

Fundraising forms went home in the students folders today.


SPRING IS IN THE AIR!! 


Mother’s Day is quickly approaching and our annual Spring Plant fundraiser is about to get underway.  Forms will be coming home this week with your children, please check their backpacks and consider supporting this fundraiser.  We are going with Devry Greenhouses again this year and their plants have been beautiful so this year should be no exception!!  If every family sells 2 items we will reach our fundraising goal to support the extra quality programming the kids have enjoyed this year (Artists in Residence, Quest Theatre, Dance Program etc.)  Forms are due back Friday April 24.  Thanks in advance for your support!
