Hi Kindergarten Families,
It has been another exciting and successful week in Kindergarten. Students have settled into our school routines nicely and are eager to share with us all they know.
Students this week have been busy. Centres have been a hit as we learn how to play with others. Many have enjoyed this a great deal. We have also done a lot of drawings and even added some labels to our drawings trying out our printing skills.
Our Terry Fox Run is scheduled for Tuesday, September 29th. Students have just started learning who Terry was and what his run means. We will take this topic up next week and have a couple of school events to celebrate our run. Our run will look different this year as due to COVID restrictions, each class will be running outside during their PE time by themselves instead of altogether during a common time. For our Mon/Wed students, we will still participate in all the lead-up activities and hold our own run on Wednesday instead of Tuesday.
Just a reminder that there is no school tomorrow as it is a Professional Learning Day for staff.
School conferences will be held next week on Thursday and Friday. You can book your conference time using the MyCBE account. If you are unable to book through this account, please call the school at 403-777-6830 and speak to our secretary Mrs. Pulfer and she will assist you.
This will be the last post on this platform as we now transition to Google Classroom. We are moving to this platform for several reasons. The first reason is that should we be forced to move to Scenario 2 or 3 due to COVID, this is the platform we would use for content delivery. Secondly, within this platform, we will have the ability to post more of the students' work and photos as this will be a private classroom instead of a public blog. Finally, it will serve as an additional means of communication with your child's teacher.
Each of you will have received a letter in your child's messenger bag with their email address and a separate school messenger with their password. We would encourage each of you to log into the classroom to ensure you can access it. If you should encounter any issues, feel free to email your child's teacher and we will help you work through it.
We hope you have a wonderful weekend! If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to reach out to us. We are here to support you and your family.
