Family Movie Night at Brentwood Park!

We were so excited to see many faces at our first ever Family Movie Night at Brentwood Park! The turnout for both shows was fantastic.

Thank you to those who attended and supported this fundraising initiative for our Grade 7’s… it was recognized and appreciated. And a special thank you to our school’s PAC who provided the movie license for our school to help make this a successful community event.

We hope you all had a fun evening!

Gymnastics circuit

We have been practicing our balance, coordination, flexibility, strength, and agility skills in our gymnastics unit!

We are having a lot of fun testing out many new skills; goals have been set!

2024 Solar Eclipse

As per district safety precautions, we will be indoors when the the solar eclipse takes place tomorrow; we will try to watch it live online.

From the Canadian Space Agency:

On , a spectacular and rare celestial event is set to unfold over Canada, the United States and Mexico – a total solar eclipse. As the Moon aligns perfectly between Earth and the Sun, temporary darkness will sweep across parts of the country, captivating countless spectators.

What is a solar eclipse?

Egg Hunt!

Div. 12 went on a mini egg hunt! For some students, this was their first hunt!

Students were excited to discover either a sweet treat and/or a few coins inside their eggs to use toward their next shopping day. They added up their coins to record into their math mat notebooks.

Each student was tasked to find three eggs each… and the weather turned out to be the perfect backdrop! Hello to some springtime fun!

Primary Days of Music!

The sun was shining as we traveled the short distance to Kitchener Elementary for Primary Days of Music. We were the largest school there!

We gathered together with four other schools to sing songs together and to hear each school perform their own few songs. We had a delightful time.

A big thank you to Leven’s mom for accompanying us on this trip to help supervise. We are so grateful!

Skating!

We had a fun morning skating together!

We saw a lot of smiles, patience, resilience when falling, and helping hands to those new to skating. It was wonderful to see. We wish we could fit in one more skating session!

Thank you to all the parents who helped to drive, tie skates, fit helmets, snap photos, and supervise.

We appreciated ALL the help and flexibility today!

Grand Opening Day!

We had our official Grand Opening of our corner store with Mrs. Kimmie present to mark the occasion!

We were incredibly proud of our class today.

Our students (shop employees and customers) each contributed patience, calmness, kindness, and respect to make our Grand Opening day a success. They shared their favourite moments and what exactly made this special experience memorable for each of them.

Thank you to all the families who donated items for our store. Today was filled with happy customers and excited shop cashiers, clerks and security guards. We can’t wait for the next shopping day!

 

Happy Valentine’s Day!

We had a ton of fun today celebrating friendship in Div. 12!

We did some yummy math, played games, shared valentines, and read a story about the importance of having balance in your life.

A favourite game today was Cheerio Tower! Ask your child about it!

Thank you to the many students who brought in treats for their classmates and teachers! We overheard a lot of “Thank yous” this afternoon.

 

 

Div. 12 Travels the World!

For our latest round of Show and Share, students researched a country they would love to visit one day. We all learned some fun facts, discovered amazing landmarks, and enjoyed seeing fantastic photos that perked a lot of curiosity.

We continue to practice our listening and speaking skills when presenting to an audience- focusing on speaking loud and clear enough for others to hear, making eye contact, and being able to answer questions.
