Hello Families, 

This week we completed our science chemistry unit and will be moving on to plants next week. In social studies, we have been researching historic forts built in Alberta and their purposes. Over the next 2 weeks we will be recreating forts and Indigenous villages to bring our history alive. We will be moving on to Time in math and creating art using rocks.

This week we discussed the terrible tragedy that has been unearthed at the former Kamloops Residential School. Today we remembered those 215 lost children by tying ribbons on the school fences. 

We are currently planning our grade 5 farewell and we sent a letter home today with details for Grade 5 parents. The whole school will participate on-line; unfortunately family are unable to join.

We only have a couple of weeks left of school and appreciate your support in ensuring your child continues to attend until the summer break.

Thank you and have a wonderful weekend.
