Hockey HEROS Orientation

Five of our students are participating in the Hockey HEROS Program.  This afternoon they went to the Gibsons Arena for their orientation, equipment fitting and their first on ice session.  I have posted a few pictures from the orientation here.

Primary Assembly

I have included a few pictures from today's Primary Assembly.  We have them every other Friday after recess-- parents are welcome to attend these. Mrs. Klan and Ms. Moul's classes performed for the group today and all students sang together to finish off the assembly.

Calendar Time

Mr. Sullivan was reviewing calendar items when I stopped by his classroom this morning.  I found out that the second Sunday in October is a special day for a particular reason.  You may be able to figure it out on your own, or you may want to ask your child.

Until later.

Proud Students

As I went to the various classes this afternoon students wanted to show me their work.  They are very proud of the work that they have done, as you can see.  I welcome parents to stop by your child's classroom to see the wonderful things that are being done daily.

Enjoy the great day!

Until tomorrow.

Recess Fun

Several students were keeping Ms. Knecht company at recess, while a lot of other students were making use of the SCSA nets that are now on our field.  What a beautiful day!

Hopefully it will be the same for our Terry Fox Run tomorrow at the Elphinstone Secondary Track at 9:20 am.  I look forward to seeing many parents there.  For your information, the K students will be doing their walk/run at GES.

Have a great afternoon and evening.

Until tomorrow.
