Cheam Wetlands

Just a reminder that we have a field trip tomorrow to the Cheam Wetlands and Kent’s icecream. Children should wear playclothes and dress for the weather just in case it’s raining! It’s hard to know at this point!

Scout’s Farm Visit

Although the weather didn’t fully cooperate, a good time was had by all!

Spring Concert

Just a reminder that our Spring Concert is on Monday, June 6th at 2pm. You are invited and can phone the office to reserve seats.

No more Spelling Tests

We are now finished Spelling for the year!

Farm Field trip

We are very excited about our farm field trip tomorrow! Unfortunately, the weather does not look like it wants to cooperate for us! We will go rain or shine, but it will be very important to dress for the rain so that we can have a fun time in the rain. Boots and a raincoat are a must!

We will leave the school at 10:45am. The property can be a bit hard to find and if you would like to join us, you are welcome to follow the bus up. We may return early if we are soaked and unhappy.

The address of the farm is 48688 Elkview Road – the driveway is gravel and you can stay to the right and follow it up to the lake. We will use the lake as our meeting place.

I hope to see you there!

We are authors!

One of the big pleasures of teaching Grade One is seeing the children become readers and writers. We have completed our Story Unit and the stories are delightful. I have created a Writing Portfolio for each child so you can see their progression! It will be coming home soon!

Our Last Spelling List

It is hard to believe that another year is coming to a close, but the days are quickly slipping away. Here are the words for our last Grade One Spelling List. Thank you for practicing Spelling with your students this year!

Greenhouse Fundraiser

We are excited for our Greenhouse Fundraiser on Friday! We will have basketball games to watch as well as some interactive skills challenges for the younger ones between games. There will be pizza for sale as well as concession treats! Due to this even being outside of school hours, all students Grade 6 and under must either be accompanied by an adult or by a sibling/family friend Grade 9 or older. We hope to see you and your family there!
