Dear Families, The second week of April has come and gone!  The warmer temps arrived this week and we're all loving IT!  We had another busy, yet productive week at school.  So much engaging, fun, and interactive learning happening in and out of our classroom! I want to take this opportunity to thank all my students for their continued diligence each and every day.  Everyone is working tremendously hard and putting in their best efforts!   As a teacher, it brings me tremendous JOY seeing my students achieve their best!!  I am certain when school work comes home, you're equally as proud and rejoice in your child's growth.

Dear Families, Is it really the last week of March?!  I hope you enjoyed the warmer temps and sunshine we had earlier this week!  It's definitely welcomed and has put a smile on all the children's faces as they run, jump, and PLAY :)   Thank you to all the staff and students who dressed up for CAMO DAY on Wednesday.  It was so great seeing all the different attire everyone was wearing.  The spirit days this month have been wonderful and gotten us all feeling connected as a school family :) Some of the teachers and I even got into the spirit after school, we went for a walk around Nottawa and got this FUN photo taken.  Can you find me?!  ;) I know the weather isn't so sunny and bright right now (Friday was quite grey and rainy), but I still hope you're able to enjoy some outdoor activity and have a lovely weekend as a family!  PS:  I hope we don't get 'fooled' next week (Thursday) ;) Character Recognition: March's character trait is Integrity -  “We can a
