Change in Calendar

I just wanted to let you know that Monday, January 20th will now be a full day of school. Due to all of the snow days, we will no longer be having a half day on Monday!

Bible Memory

For the month of January this is our Bible Memory verse:
Psalm 139:13-14 (NIV)
For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother’s womb. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.  Please practise at home in addition to our daily practise at school.

Spelling Words

On Monday I will introduce the next 10 words and testing will be Friday, January 17.  Here are the words:  make,  jump, say, play, are, must, was, has, have, had.  Please practise these words at home.  Thank you!

Bake Sale

On Thursday, January 16^th Mrs. Goosen & Mrs. Riley’s Grade 5 class will be hosting a bake sale in the school lobby.  The money raised will be used to purchase composting bins for the intermediate classrooms and support the Guatemala missions team. All items will be $1.  Thank you for your support!

Spelling Words

We are now going to do 10 words per week.  I will introduce them today, and students will need home support of practise before testing on Friday, January 10.  Thank you for your support!  Here are the words:  man, boy, book, dog, home, school, street, mother, time, hand
