We celebrated HAWKS Day on Thursday and fun was had by all. We started our morning by discussing what makes us all Kitchener HAWKS (Helpful, Accepting, Working hard, Kind and Safe) and then we had fun trying out mini golf. Lots of our friends were trying it for the first time and we talked about how it was good to try new activities and that the important part was for us to have fun! Everyone did such a great job running the obstacle course which involved actions of balancing, ducking, jumping and running. The kids showed awesome sportsmanship cheering everyone on and a definite highlight from the day was having fresh popped popcorn!
In the afternoon we planted our potatoes as part of the Spuds in Tubs program by Agriculture in the Classroom. We talked about what plants need to grow and read a story called Alex’s First Seed. We gave our spuds their first big drink of water and it will be interesting to observe if anything changes when we get back to school after Spring Break.
We hope that everyone has a fun filled Spring Break and we can’t wait to see everyone in two weeks on March 29th.
