Year end is just around the corner

Hi!

Here we are!  These past ten months have come and gone so fast. 

All the students have done their "Show and Share" presentation.  They did wonderfully.  It is so neat seeing what the children have chosen to bring to share with their classmates because I could always tell it was special to them.  We saw everything from baby siblings, figure skates, lady bug in a jar, plants, a light up Vegas shirt and so much more. 

The Signing In activity has been successful. I appreciate you all being so supportive and remembering that all the children are at different stages in the writing process.  I will be sending home their laminated sheet in a couple classes, I encourage you to keep practicing.  Please try your best to continue to expose them to lower case letters as much as possible. 

Our first Park Day had to be rescheduled due to rain (and in which later turned into a Tornado Warning).  We will wait to see what the weather holds for us tomorrow (Thursday, June 13) and then decide whether we will be moving that Park Day.  Please keep an eye on your emails as to whether it is cancelled and when the rescheduled day will be.  Thanks for your understanding in this matter.

Just a heads up as to how the Tornado Warning was handled this afternoon.  An email was sent out to families by Cheryl explaining that we were under a Tornado Warning.  Chynna and I kept an eye to the weather and if at any point we decided we were not safe, we would be taking the children next door to the hair salon in the basement.  We had the radio on low in the kitchen so as to be kept current and decided to get the children dressed and ready to go earlier than usual so it would be a quick pick up for parents/guardians.  I explained to them that we had a storm coming, kept things calm and read them a couple of stories.  Glad everyone is okay :) 

Last Day of Classes Parties:
T/TH  - Thursday, June 20th
F - June 21st
M/W - Monday, June 24th

The last day of classes will be low key. I would like to give the kids the opportunity to just have a nice play and be with their classmates as a whole one last time.  We will have a special snack and handing out scrapbooks.  Please do not forget to take your indoor shoes and check Lost and Found box.

AGM/Family BBQ  JUNE 22nd at Whitecroft Hall
Please mark this event down (with pen :) ) on your calendars.  It will be held in the afternoon at Whitecroft Hall.  Please bring out your friends and family as this is a nice way to wind up the school year as a whole community and welcome Summer.  The Board has been working hard on this event so don't miss it!

A BIG THANK YOU to everyone who has come together to make this school year an enriching experience for the children.  Whether it be fundraising, cleaning, scrapbooking, field trips, loft building and so much more, I really want you to know that your actions did not go unnoticed.

Happy Father's Day!!

Thanks!
