Covered for Mrs. Servo-Sept Class

I covered for Mrs. Servo-Sept this afternoon, as she took the GES Games Crew on their year-end field trip-- they went kayaking thanks to the PAC.

The class was delightful and after USSR time we went outside and enjoyed the great weather with a game of Capture the Flag. The Green Team was victorious over the Red Team 2-1. It was good fun and they ran until they were very tired.

They finished the afternoon up working at a variety of centers. The students were full of energy all afternoon.

Just a reminder that the Aboriginal Gathering tomorrow, from 4:30- 7:30 p.m. will be a celebration of National Aboriginal Day-- all are welcome. There will be a pot-luck dinner for those interested.

Until tomorrow.

Field Trip, Birthday & Art

The Kindergarten classes were getting ready to go on their field trip to Davis Bay and a got a picture of two excited students taking up their class attendance. When I ventured to Mrs. Klan's class I heard a birthday song... we sang another rendition of Happy Birthday when I went in the class. The two students seemed appreciative.

The third picture is an art project that Mrs. Kopeck's class has done. It is great to see how far these K students have come.

Division 1 is on a field trip to Katherine Lake today, so it should be a bit quieter than usual.

Until later.

Division 1: A Mid-Summer Night's Dream-- Fantastic!!!

Bravo to Ms. Duncan and Division 1 for their outstanding rendition of Shakespeare's, "A Mid-Summer Night's Dream." Awesome job!!!

Technology Improvements

We recently purchased seven document cameras and projectors-- the PAC purchased three of these. The feedback has been fantastic from both staff and students. I have included a few pictures of the document camera being used in Ms. Knecht's class yesterday.
