December has flown by and we are in our final days together before the break! We have a lot of learning, celebrating, and excitement planned for next week! Please carefully read through the important upcoming dates at the bottom of this email to see what we will be up to. 🎄
We have been as busy as little elves lately! We spent time in our "workshop" (art room) creating gifts and cards for our families. With the help of our grade 6 buddies, we also created cards to send to various seniors homes in our community. The kiddos really enjoyed being creative, sharing kindness, and thinking of others this week! 🎁
Thank you for attending our Christmas Concert on Tuesday night! We are so proud of how well our Grade 3's performed their song and we hope you enjoyed the show! 🎶
