Spring is Here!

Hope everyone had a fantastic Spring Break!  The kids came back energised and refreshed today.  The countdown to summer is on with just over 3 months of school left.  We are starting Independent Novel Studies next week, so your child will need to find an age appropriate book to commit to, and bring it to school with them on Monday.  Miss Kelly will present a number of great books in the library on Wednesday, but we encourage them to look on their own book shelves and at the public library as well. 


Tomorrow is also our last skating day!  We will be skating with Divisions 1, and 3 as well.  Bring your skates and helmets.  Thank you to the parents who have come out to help with skates and to join us on the ice as well. 


By the end of this week every student in Division 2 will have presented their first A.C.E. Report.  Students have been reading, summarizing, and leading a discussion about a current event each day this week.  We have discussed Bill C-51, the fire at the port, the transportation tax and more.  It's been super interesting and we look forward to the next two weeks of presentations.  The attached link is a follow-up article to one of our discussions.
