if anyone is reading.....

As I prepare for the first day of school, I realize I need a seed collection and I'm sure all of you can help.  Please save all your seeds.  For example, apple, grape, cherry pits, acorns or beans.  We are beginning the year focusing on seasons, growth, flowers, plants and colours.

Thanks for sending in your seeds.

Summer time

Be sure to explore our amazing city with your child this summer.  A child with interesting life experiences has more connections to the world around them.  Check out these links:

Toronto has a ton of free events in the Summer.  Have a wonderful holiday!  I will see you in September!

Report Cards

All students will receive a report card today.  Please check your child's backpack for the brown envelope.  Tonight, you and your child can complete page 2 of the report card and return it to school tomorrow.

Wednesday

As we wind down the school year, we are preparing for our end of the school year celebration.  On Wednesday afternoon, weather permitting, we will have an outdoor afternoon filled with treats, water fights (for those who want to), stories in the shade and any other fun thing we can think of.  Feel free to send in treats for the children to share and any other outdoor fun things your child wants to share with the class - water squirteers, sidewalk chalk, bubbles and the like.

I have to say, my first year of all day kindergarten has been amazing.  The children have been a delight and have learned so much.  I look forward to seeing the juniors continue to grow next year and I know Miss D'Heureux is going to really enjoy getting to know the seniors next year in grade one.

Have a fun, safe summer!
