The final days of the school year are nearly here. What a tremendous year of learning and friendship! I thank you for your support in this journey. I am looking forward to the school slide show on the last day of school. It will be nice to look back in the photographs to see again what happened this year and how we all took part in the journey together. And this week, students are very excited about their upcoming Sports Day on Wednesday (p.s. its our first sports day!). Please join us if you are able.

Monday - Presently we do not have enough drivers for our field trip.  If we pull through Monday morning with another driver we will leave at 11:00 am. It's a library visit/lunch and water park trip. Please bring bathing suit for water park, towel and hat. Please apply sunscreen before school. Please bring carseat.

One final note:  The kindergarteners are involved in the grade seven graduation assembly in the final week of school. Kindergarteners will walk briefly with a grade seven student as a small part of the ceremony. If you have any cousin or friend connection with a student in grade seven you can let us know and we will try to match them up for the ceremony. Please let us know A.S.A.P.

We continued our social studies theme People and Places of our Community. This week students will be introduced to mapping skills. At home you can make a connection by talking about your floor plan and an exit route out of the house in case of fire. Feel free to send in any maps that you may have. We would be interested to see them. Please label with your name.
