So much fun at Carnaval and the grade 6's were true leaders...Mostly all the teachers came up and commented on how they were doing such a great job! Bien fait les amis! Pictures coming soon.

Pink shirt day is normally Feb 27th, however that day is our theme day so Mme Wozny changed ours to Monday. In all fairness, it should be every day that we stand up to bullies! Wear a pink shirt Monday.


Also, coming up soon, students need to collect materials to make a parachute in class. I will have the weights, but they are responsible for the strings and whatever you choose for the sail. We need this by Tuesday next week. 

Our visit to Madeleine d'Houet was great and I think the students enjoyed themselves. They were very well behaved and probably anxious to start right away...sorry guys but you still have me for 4 more months!

Tomorrow is Carnaval d'hiver! Dress up for the weather and to be outdoors for most students, most of the day. Grade 6 students are running the show so dress as a lumberjack and be ready for fun.

Mardi Gras is also tomorrow night. I look forward to seeing you there.
