Come and Check Out Our Concert!

Two performances of our Christmas Concert, Christmas At The Zoo, will be performed tomorrow, Tuesday, December 17! One show at 11:00am and the other at 6:30pm. Students have put in a lot of time and effort practicing for our big show, so please come and check it out! Food Bank donations will be accepted at the door.

Students need to attend both performances. Please bring your child to the school at 6pm.

Here is a sneak peak of the art set up around our gym…

Our Grade 2/3 Workshop

Today we set up our own workshop in the gym with the senior woodworking class from the high school. I won’t share exactly what we made with you as they are going to be our Christmas gifts this year, but here are some pictures of us working together with our big buddies 🙂

 

Who are you going to give your special project to for Christmas?

Hang your stockings…’cause Santa Claus comes…soon!

We had an exciting craft afternoon this week! A big thank you to all of our wonderful parent volunteers who came to help us. Together with Mrs. Sharpe’s class and Mrs. Taggart’s class, we sewed our own stockings, made Christmas cards, and created some polar bear art.

December is Here!

It’s December 1st and in my household, that means we are allowed to decorate for Christmas! We made these paper chains with Mrs. Pakenham’s kindergarten class on Friday and I put them up this weekend.
