April Updates

We have a few upcoming events. The Scientist in Schools program will be coming to Area 6. A form with more information will be sent home shortly. We will need at least 4 parent volunteers. Please complete the form and return.

Leader Days continue, please see April Calendar click here. This month our focus will be on a favourite book or story. I will read the story and he/she will answer questions about the story, such as why is this your favourite story? When do you read this story? Who reads it to you?  Thank you for your support.

Borrow-a-book has had a great start. The students are excited and interested. Please remind your child to place the book bag in the bin labelled "BORROW-A-BOOK."
