Dog Days of June...

Things are winding downa for grade 5 and it's hard to believe that we have less than 2 weeks of school remaining! Last Friday I brought my dogs in the afternoon for a play and the kids seemed to really enjoy running and playing with them. We are nearing the end of grade 5 and there are some fun things that will be taking place in the few remaining weeks. I hope the kids enjoy their last few days in grade 5!

A Chilly Track and Field Day

Despite the weather, the grade 5's seemed to have a great time at their first track and field meet! The weather didn't hold back the competition, and everyone did well in all of their events. A reminder that high jump has been postponed until tomorrow morning due to the weather. All students that placed first or second in their events will be talking to Mr. S and Mrs. Brown in the very near future to discuss cities with them. Great participation everyone!

5M is a Class of Busy Bees!

It is getting to be a busy time of year in 5M! There are many activities and events that have taken place and many more to come in the upcoming weeks! We started off the week by participating in a Community Clean Up - where students from the school cleaned up streets around our school. By the time we returned to the school, we had 4 full garbage bags! Great job 5M! As a thank you to students we had a pancake breakfast the following morning.

Today we had a Canadian Geography Challenge Game Show with all of the 4-6 students. 3 students from each class were put on a 4-6 team and were asked Canadian Trivia questions. Our representatives were Kailey, Haylee and Jayden. They all did a great job and we had a fantastic time watching you!


Due to the busy time of year, we have stepped away from our routines such as spelling and facts. Next week is a 4 day week, with our LVS track meet on Thursday which will be a great experience and I'm really looking forward to it. We have also dedicated a lot of our class time for practicing the musical which will be in the evening on May 29th. It's a busy time and the kids and myself are enjoying our last remaining weeks together.
