Pre-break news


Lenten project

We'd like to thank all the children for their hard work and generosity in giving to others. As you can see, our heart is filling up - as the children have been purchasing items for CHF, we have been adding puzzle pieces to our heart.



This project will continue after March Break until Easter and we will have a chance to fill our heart completely. On that note, we have been exploring the concept of money as the children bring in their coins. 
Please see the link below for a fun song about Canadian coins:

Canada in my pocket


Springing ahead...

When we return from the Break, we will be celebrating 
Spring has Sprung Week. Here is a preview of our activities:

Monday - Hat Day and Easter Door Decorating contest begins

Tuesday - Backwards Day and Estimate Jar Guessing

Wednesday - First Day of Spring - Beach Day and Games Day (bring in your favorite 'simple' board game, ie. candyland, dominoes, tictactoe, etc.), judging of Easter Doors after school

Thursday - Purple Spirit Day, School Spirit gathering in gym to create a daffodil, Winners of Door decorating and Estimation jar announced

Friday - PJ Day and 2nd block movie in gym (Gr. 1-6) in Learning commons (kindergarten). Donate a twoonie or loonie to support CHF and watch the movie!

Have a wonderful break!
