Hi everyone!  We can’t believe we are approaching the end of the month already! The Christmas break flew by and the children all came back energized and seem to have grown a lot too! Must have been all that sleeping in late 😁.

Today Victoria came and taught us about saving money. Everyone made their own piggy bank. We discussed ways the children get or earn money and how hard it can be to save. Please help your child learn to save by earning money for doing chores around the house and seting a goal for something they would like to buy. When the time comes, just open the piggy bank with a can opener! 

Cardboard Everywhere!

Another highlight this week was some of the students had their cardboard arcade games ready to test. Some are very close to being finished! Amazing how they have turned ideas into reality. Some are still designing planning or just creating – it’s all fine! They have really developed their skills communicating and listening to each other, problem solving and accepting feedback on how to improve their project.

We are pleased to announce the arrival of our Salmon eggs last Friday. We will go and visit and peek at them once in awhile to watch them change. We started to learn about the salmon lifecycle today. We are also developing our understanding of the importance of water and the water cycle. This week we discussed how to not waste water such as by turning off the tap while brushing our teeth. Stay tuned for more info!
