October 9th Edition of
The K/1 Class News
Hello Everyone! What a busy week!
PLEASE check the planner bag daily for forms and notes. The form for our next field trip is still in many of the bags. Also, there are raffle tickets from the PAC now in the bags.
We started the week off with a bus safety presentation and everyone enjoyed exploring the bus. The kindies are now ready to ride should you wish!
The next day was fire fighter day! Everyone was welcomed to school by the fire fighters and enjoyed a hot pancake breakfast. We then had a fire safety lesson on battery safety. Something that is easily missed when thinking about causes of fire. Later we all walked down to Shell beach and enjoyed exploring the seaside. It was a beautiful afternoon.
Wednesday we made apple crumble in preparation for our Harvest Lunch and everyone helped chop, peel and mix.
We also talked about what it means to be thankful and then wrote in our journals. We signed out new books from the library and learned about different life cycles. We went on a counting hunt around the room, went to music class, learned about traditional indigenous thanksgiving foods from “Mr. Cucumber” aka Quinten Harris and more!
The Harvest Lunch was a highlight and great way to end the week. We all gathered in the gym and ate together. A big thank you to everyone who helped out.
We are on to the letter C for show and tell next week!
*Important!* If you have not sent the permission slip/$8 in for the pumpkin patch trip, it MUST be in by Tuesday if your child is going to come. You can e-transfer the office or send in cash. If the money is a hardship, email Kaz and she can cover it.
