May 18-22 Activities
Hello Division 14 Families,
I hope you all had a lovely long weekend! We had some beautiful weather today, I finally made it out on a much needed challenging hike now that some things are open. This week we will be continuing on our plant inquiry and we also have Outdoor Classroom Day on Thursday! One of my favourite days of the school year. I encourage you to spend as much of the day as you can, and just appreciate the land the we live and play on. We are so lucky to live in such a beautiful place. There is a slight chance of rain but there are so many things to appreciate outside in the rain too. So even if its raining, bundle up and go for a walk if you can!
On another note some of you might have heard in the news starting on June 1, 2020 there will be the option for students to voluntarily return to school. More information in regards to this will be shared as soon as it is available. Thank you for your patience and understanding. Below are the activities for the week 🙂
