March 2-6

Thank you to all of the families who came to watch our special assembly. The students were adorable and did a fantastic job!  We hope that the message of anti-bullying and kindness is something we continue to live and promote every single day. 

Dr. Seuss
This week in Grade One, we are celebrating Dr. Seuss!  Each day, we will be reading and doing activities based on Dr. Seuss stories.  If your child has a favourite Dr. Seuss book at home, they can bring it to school (labelled with their name please).  We will return the books at the end of the week.

Building
We have started our Building Unit in Science and the students are so excited!  We spent a few days last week sorting out our building supplies and learning about fasteners.  This week, we will be building towers, musical instruments, boats, and bridges.  Please keep sending your recyclable materials for us!
Thanks!

Gymnastics.
Our gymnastic equipment is here and all set up!  The students are very excited for this unit.  In order to ensure student safety while using the equipment, we ask that students come to school dressed in comfortable, active clothing.

Report Cards
Report cards will be available for you to view online in PowerSchools on Friday, March 13. If you are not able to log in to PowerSchools, please talk to our admin assistants in the office.  Formal parents/teacher interviews will be by request only and will take place on Thursday, March 19 in the afternoon.  Students will be dismissed by 11:47 on that day.  If you would like to request an interview, please email me.  I will also have an interview sign-up at the Celebration of Learning.
We will be hosting a "pop-in" style Celebration of Learning on Monday, March 16 from 5:30-7:00.  We would love to see all students with their families as they will have an opportunity to show off their work and showcase their learning.
