The year has begun wonderfully! The students are bright, energetic and a pleasure to work with. We have a few events on our horizon. On September 22nd we will be having a Float sale to help offset costs of our first field trip. We will be travelling to Saskatoon to bowl and swim on October 5. We will be travelling by bus and will return before the end of the day. On Sept. 22, we will be having a “Meet the Staff” night. It is always a great opportunity to get together and enjoy some social time. You have the opportunity to visit your child’s classroom and visit the staff who works with your child. On Sept. 28, we have our Terry Fox Day.

Academically, we have begun to look at Patterns and Relations in math, Science Fiction in English, Characteristics of Life in science, and we are currently working on mapping in social. We have a busy year ahead of us!

Joining us until Christmas, is Mrs. Kinzel. She is an intern from the University and a welcome addition to our room! Her enthusiasm and energy are a definite asset to our daily routines!

As always, should you have any question or concerns, please feel free to contact me at the school, 544-2511 or via e-mail (Nicole.Bain@spiritsd.ca). It’s going to be an amazing year!
