Calendar Update!

I can’t believe that we only have 5 more school days left! We still have lots of work to do. For example, the students are currently working on their journal writing and using proper punctuation (question marks, periods, exclamation points, capitals, apostrophes, commas etc.) and writing a reflection which highlights all of the fun things we did in Grade 1. The students are also working on mastering addition and subtraction. We are looking forward to our freezie party on Friday – the class was the first group of students to return all of their library books! As a result, they have been awarded a freezie party by our school librarian, Mme Poirier.

Please note that Term 2 report cards will be coming home on Wednesday, June 29th.

Please let me know if your child will be taking an early vacation. The last day of school is Thursday, June 30th. We will be having a small celebration in the afternoon on the last day. You are welcome to send in a nut free treat with your child to share with the class.

Thank you!

Ms. Gaffen

June has arrived!

Dear Parents/Guardians,

It is hard to believe that we are in our last month of school. Can you believe how fast the year has gone? We have had a wonderful year of learning, growing and changing. Even as the excitement of the summer holiday will be shortly upon us, it is with a heavy heart that I say goodbye to my beloved students. Your children have worked very hard and are ready for the new and exciting challenges ahead of them. Congratulations!

It has been my greatest pleasure and privilege to work with all of your sons and daughters, and to get to know their families. I hope all of you will drop in to say hello when the new school year is upon us. I will keep you all in my thoughts.

Kindly print the form and have your child complete it by the expected due date for our upcoming Book Talk. Specific details are outlined in the June newsletter. Please ensure your child has practiced and is ready to go on Monday, June 13th. Thank you! I am very much looking forward to hearing your child present his/her favourite book.
