Is Spring really here?

A huge thanks to all parents who have been sending appropriate outdoor gear for our crazy weather!

Here is a look at this week:

Tuesday: 9:05-9:25- You are welcome to join us for our Concours presentation. The students have been working hard to prepare for their "Show and Shine"

Wednesday: Junior ATB Deposit Day
                   Ag Days fieldtrip (PM)

Friday: Salad Bar Lunch


It was great to see the healthy eating challenge papers coming back so colourful! I thank each and everyone of you for helping your children understand the importance of healthy eating. Below are the portions that we discussed for children their age:

Meats and alternatives: 1 portion
Grain Products: 4 portions
Milk Products: 2 portions
Fruits and Vegetables: 5 portions

Here are a few pictures highlighting  some events last week:

We did an egg experiment to understand how different drinks affect our teeth. We also brushed the eggs afterwards to help us understand why it is important to brush our teeth! It was soo fun to watch the students reaction through the different stages of the experiment! We discovered that coffee, coke and grape juice stained the egg alot.

The grape juice egg:


We all took turns looking at and touching the eggs once we took them out of the liquid after soaking for 24 hours. 


The Coke egg: 


The milk egg: 


The water egg: 


Tegan was our Star of the Week last week and Friday he brought in his dog to share with us! Here are the silly faces we can make! 


Have a great week!
