Newsletter #21

 March 12th Edition of

The Kindergarten/1 Class News




Hello Everyone, here is the last newsletter before the break.

 

This week was full of events! We got to browse the science fair put on by the older classes and check out the many creative ideas. The science theme continued with a workshop on dynamic dinos! A study of archaeology and fossil making. 


We also enjoyed a music performance brought to us by the high school, something to aspire to! 

 

We got creative and designed and built bridges out of straws and modeling clay. See the photos.

 

We will be on the letter ‘Ww’ for Show and Tell when we return after the break.

 

Once again, I have kept the home reading folders here at school, so they don’t get lost over the break. 

Report Cards will be sent home the first week back to school after the break. 

 

Important Dates to Remember:

March 30 School back in session

April 6th Easter Monday (No School)

April 10th School in session


I hope you all have an enjoyable Spring Break, whatever it is you get up to. 

 

Warmly,

Ara Van Riel

Happy weekend Everyone!

We had an exciting week and finished with a bang, celebrating the 100th day of school on Thursday. We enjoyed looking at all the different representations of the number 100 and had a super fun day!

 

We were lucky enough to win the school challenge of being the class who was most aware of bringing our plastic recycling home and not filling our garbage. Yay! 

 

We have been enjoying the feeling of Spring in the forest and made beautiful spring art. 

 

Also, we must have a bunch of growth spurts going on as many of the kids are polishing off all of their food and needing more. We do have some food for those in need but perhaps ask your child if they need a bigger lunch. 

 

Next week is the last week of school before the break. 


We are on V for Show and Tell. 

 

I will be submitting the scholastic book orders tomorrow so get your order in now if you want to get in on the next shipment. The class code is on the top left corner of the flyer. 

 

Important Dates to Remember:

March 13 First day of Spring Break

March 30 School back in session

April 6th Easter Monday (No School)

 

Warmly,
