Nelson’s Haunted Museum!

On Wednesday, Division 1’s 6s and 7s will be hosting their annual haunted house and this year’s theme is The HAUNTED MUSEUM! 
Along with being a fun activity for the whole school, each year this is a fundraiser for Nelson’s foster children. This year our children are Kevin Rodriguez Burgos and Parishmita Singha. Please bring at least a quarter to support these wonderful kids and all the work Division 1 does for our school!

Pumpkin Patch Time! rolling-pumpkinDivision 8 met up with their buddies from Mr. Morrison’s grade 6/7 class this afternoon. We enjoyed some delicious hot chocolate with marshmallows provided by our wonderful PAC parents ~ Thank You!! and then picked the perfect pumpkin from our pumpkin patch.
Afterwards we returned to Mr. Morrison’s portable and Ms. Watt’s room to do fun Halloween activities with our buddies.
