Good morning Parents,

Tomorrow is our Field Trip At Telus Spark.  Many thanks to Parent Volunteers who have very kindly offered to drive directly to the Science Center. The bus will be leaving the school at 9am.  Please make sure that your child comes on time.  Since the kids will be walking around the centre, exploring all the exciting locations over and above their Magnetism class, please could you send some extra snacks with their lunch. 

Many thanks and have a great day!

Dear Parents,
I am sending home a Math booklet with the kids who have not yet completed it.  I gave it a long time ago in class. They can take a week to complete it at home.  As well, I sent a spider booklet home on Friday so that the kids could practice their favourite spider for a Presentation in class this week.  Please do review it with your child at home.
Thank you so much.
