TWO MORE WEEKS!!!!!!

School is winding down, and this week we will make two trips. The first trip is to the Grand Manan Museum (just our Kindergarten class) on Wednesday, June 10th. On Thursday June 11th, we will have our annual "Day at the Beach", leaving school at 11:00am for the Anchorage Park. Any family members who would like to join us are more than welcome. Your child will need a bag lunch (two drinks would be a good idea, and one could be water), sunscreen, a towel, a hat, beach toys (labelled with his/her name), and clothes appropriate for the weather that day. If it is raining on Thursday, we will go on Friday. The buses will pick the children up at the Anchorage to return them home at the regular time.
Hope to see you at the Anchorage!

JUNE is here!

Well, only three more weeks of classes and this year is a done deal.... We are still doing lots of work, so please help your child remain focused on school work.
We have completed the list of tricky and sight words, as well as going through the letters of the alphabet. We are doing a lot of review, and this is important to make sure the students remember what we've learned this year.
Mrs. Jones has put a slide show of our Spring Carnival on her blog - please take a minute or two to have a look. We all had a great time!
As well, please keep an eye open in your child's agenda for information re our trip to the Anchorage on the 11th (rain date 12th), and see his/her homework duotang today for a slip about June 16th, when they are to stay home as next year's class is coming for a visit that day.
There will be no more homework, which I'm sure pleases both you and your child.
Have a great week!
