Merry Christmas!!!

We had so much fun today!

We went on a Scavenger hunt in teams to make reindeer food. We opened awesome Santa letters! We shared Holiday hugs! We sang Christmas Carols. We ate yummy goodies. We even completed our spelling test! What a day.

Thank you parents for all of your help in everything we do! It is so appreciated!

I hope you all have a lovely and relaxing holiday! Be safe and see you in 2011!

Hope you all had a great weekend and are not feeling too stressed with Christmas "stuff"!

Spelling words this week are:

We are VERY SHORT on drivers for the skating date on December 16th. If you are already signed up THANK YOU so much. If you think you might be able to make it to help drive and pick up please email and let me know. Thank you to Mrs. Richardson, Mrs. Olmstead and Mrs. Van Seters for driving so far.

If your child does not have skates we will try to find a pair through the school but please remember there are 100 Grade 2 students skating so it will be a tough job. If you have friends, family or neighbours you could borrow from, please check into it. Same for helmets. Although Nicholas Sheran has some to borrow, with 100 students skating there most likely will not be enough. Without both helmets and skates they are not able to be on the ice.   

If you have not yet sent in your sledding consent from interview time could you please send it back ASAP. Thanks so much!

Some fun photos....

Snowshoeing today was a BLAST! Pretty funny stuff watching them all truck around in their huge snowshoes! Not one student gave up and it was a beautiful day!

It was Ms. T's last day yesterday. :( We were sad to see her go but we are so happy that she was a part of our class. Thank you for all of your hard work and good luck with your super bright future!
