The Kindergarten’s Trip to the Vancouver Aquarium & Stanley Park!

In Science this term, we learned about animals that live under the sea!  We read many fictional & non-fictional books, we made beautiful artwork and finally we visited the Vancouver Aquarium.

After touring the Aquarium in small groups with our parent volunteers we ate lunch in the park and investigated the beach!  Then we got to go to the Aquarium classroom and learn more about the wonderful animals that live in the oceans of British Columbia.

April Fool’s Day!

According to the BC government – children from Kindergarten to Grade 3 should no longer sit in chairs. It seems they are bad for their backs!  So, all our chairs had been taken away! We decided to see how it would go and email the government at the end of the day with the things we like or don’t like about it. There was some grumbling (mostly by Ms Lawder) …but, most rose, or should I say sank, to the challenge.  After a morning without chairs, we prepared for lunch only to learn that Ms. Lawder had played an April Fool’s trick on us. We all had a good giggle!

Kindergarten Technology Inquiry

Over the past few weeks, the Kindergartens have been investigating different kinds of technology.  We learned that technology is… anything that we use to help make our lives easier (not just computers, iPads, or electronics!)

We also learned how to take photographs with the school ipads and each student picked a piece of ‘technology’ that they wanted to take a picture of!  Have a look at some of the technology in our school!
