Field Trip Tomorrow
Telus Spark Science Center Field Trip:
Thank you to Dale, Tara and Heather for volunteering.
You will need to bring a litter-less lunch and snacks. We will take backpacks for our indoor shoes, lunch kits, and water bottles. As we will be all over the science center and there are water fountains around. We thought that it might be difficult in keeping track of water bottles, so the water bottles will stay in the backpacks.
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED
Teacher’s Pet In-School Field Trip
We will be traveling back in time to the heart of an Acadian village. We will learn all about the daily life of a hustling and bustling Acadian village. We will need 3 volunteers to help run the stations as the students move from station to station throughout the morning. You will need to be here around 8:45am and you will be done by 11ish. Please let Angela know if you are able to volunteer. Thank you
Kindness starts here
Hi, it’s the give power hour. We want to let you know about an upcoming event. On Wednesday, February 22 we are trying to create a sea of pink. In the afternoon the grade 5/6 are hosting an assembly at 1:15 pm, please remember to wear pink. Stand up to bullies, not just on February 22 but all the time. Remember Kindness starts here!
Grade 2’s are away on a field trip that day but we can be a sea of pink at the science center.
Idea Lab Club
Mrs. Blanchard will be hosting a club in the Idea Lab on Thursday’s at lunch recess. It will begin next week with a rotating drop-in schedule for specific classes each week. There will be a variety of playful centers, provocations and design challenges available for exploration. No need to sign up, just drop-in on your classroom’s assigned date if you would like to join!
Grade 2’s get to go on March 2nd.
