World History day was celebrated on campus last week, and our students enjoyed each of the five classrooms they visited. Starting in P1 we learned about invertebrates, then to P2 for a hands on immersion in the life of fishes and amphibians. Students came face to face with dinosaurs in P3, experienced the world of early humans in P4, with a final excursion to the Renaissance era hosted in E5.

With fun and learning interwoven into all of the activities, students enjoyed the day immensely.

We could not have done it without the tremendous help from our parents, including Christy, Lisa, Bethany, Sharon, Andrea H., Andrea C., Kristy, Evangelina and Maryam. We appreciate all that each one of you did to prepare, host, and guide our students during this special day.

Please remember with the weather turning chilly, it is essential that every student bring a jacket or sweater to school. It is especially cool in the outdoor classroom during the morning work cycle and that extra layer of warmth is required for students to work outside. Please label all of your child’s jackets so that we can help them keep track of their clothes.

It is also a good idea to repack a set of warmer clothes for their cubbies. We can send summer clothes home.

Whenever possible, please take the time to show your child HOW to put on their jackets, as that helps expedite our process when transitioning for recess.
