V is for VACATION FROM SCHOOL

Posted on June 21, 2018 by Ms. Watt | 1 comment

V ~ VACATION from School at Suncrest Water Park! We spent our morning playing in the spray park, on the playground and relaxing on our blankets with our friends. Cool, windy weather unfortunately had us heading back to school after lunch, but we got a quick side visit with Ms. Lawder at South Slope.

On Monday, May 7th, we will be visiting our neighbour school, South Slope Elementary, for their spectacular musical, Alice in Wonderland. This is a free dress rehearsal performance that we have been invited to see and all parents are welcome to join us! We’ll be leaving at ~12:30 and be returning before 3pm.
On Tuesday, May 8th we will be visiting Burnaby Village Museum for the day. Although we will be taking a bus there, we are looking for parents to join us and help lead a small group around the village.
Please let Ms. Watt know by commenting on this post or writing in your child’s planner if you are able to join us!

St. Michaels Visit

On Thursday morning, we visited Saint Michaels with Miss Gatenby’s grade 1s for our 1st time this year & sang for the seniors.
I’m so proud of how everyone performed and were so respectful in a much different environment than you’re used to. Way to go grade 2s & 3s!
After entertaining, we were all spoiled with snacks and brought goodie bags back with us to school!
