Some happenings from the past week:

World Cup Soccer

With the start of World Cup, we practiced some soccer skills like dribbling and kicking into a net. We also had the opportunity to watch a bit of Canada’s first game on the big screen in the gym.

Jingle Bell Walk

We embarked on our annual JINGLE BELL WALK on Thursday. The students were quite excited to hand out flyers to homes along Brantford Ave. The flyers were asking neighbours to donate food or new toys for less fortunate families. Hopefully the donations will start arriving next week! Thank you Monica for walking with us!

Reader’s Theatre of Good Night Owl

Thank you to all the families that were able to attend our performance. It means so much to the students to have an audience to perform for.

Fast words and home reading bags

We have new fast words: CAN, LIKE, TO, ARE, BE.

Your child can look for these fast words in their home reading books.

Please try to read the home reading books a few times before returning the bag of books on Monday. I will send home a new book bag on Monday.

TD Bank book donation

Every year TD Bank donates a new book to every Gr. 1 student. This year your child is receiving “Fast Friends”. This is their book to keep. 

Pro-D Day on Friday

Please remember that school is closed to students on Friday.

Snow next week

Hard to believe, but snow is in the forecast for next week! Let’s pull out those winter clothing so we are prepared! Please also replenish your child’s extra clothing at school if you know they brought some home especially dry socks.

 

Thank you! Have a lovely weekend!
