Good afternoon everyone.  Please be advised that there will be no Track and Field this week.  The weather is not cooperating with us so we will have to reschedule for some time in the fall.

Monday, October 1, 2018

Hello everyone and welcome to October.  I can't believe the first month of school is already gone.  We have a very busy month in front of us so keep your eyes on the Important Dates to Remember for October.  The first thing you'll want to remember is our Pancake Breakfast tomorrow morning.  This is in honour of Mr. MacKenzie's birthday.  You'll also want to wear your Jack MacKenzie wear tomorrow.

We have a few short weeks this month.  There is no school this Friday, next Monday, and Friday, Oct. 26th. 

Have a fabulous day everyone.

Hey everyone.  There will be no Track and Field tomorrow due to our cold, wet weather.  It has been re-booked for October 11th.  Hopefully the weather is more cooperative at that time.  Our Terry Fox Walk is happening on Thursday afternoon.  Remember to bring your Toonies for Terry.

Hello everyone.  We survived another five-day week - yay us!  It helps that this is such a fabulous class.  Please keep an eye on the Homework Updates.  Grade 7's have a math test on Monday as well as worksheet to complete.  We also will be correcting the next CARS (reading strategies) worksheet. 

A few students are behind on a few assignments - you know who you are.  Please remember that privileges such as Gym Blast are not for students with unfinished homework.  Get it done and get it in . . . with your name on it!

Next week we will be busy.  We have Track and Field, Terry Fox Walk, a couple of assemblies and Umoja starts rehearsing on Friday at lunch.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Hey everyone.  Thanks for a great full week.  I know some of us are feeling exhausted as we're not used to working so hard, so rest up this weekend.

We started our QSP fundraiser this week.  Please, please, please participate.  Every magazine subscription you sell, helps bring something special to our school.  We all benefit from this effort so it would be fabulous if we all participated.

Picture day is next week.  Keep your eyes on the Important Dates for September and the Homework Updates so that you don't miss anything.  We have several assignments due on Monday, so make sure you're ready with those.  If you forgot to take something home to work on this weekend, you can always catch up in the homework room during the lunch hour on Monday.

Have a great weekend everyone.

Good evening everyone.  Thanks for an awesome day at Treaty Four.  My ankle is just sprained so if I'm not there tomorrow, I will be back very soon.  This is just a quick reminder for the band students that band sectionals start tomorrow.  Remember your instruments!

Friday, August 31, 2018

Welcome back to school.  I'm thrilled to be here for another year and I cannot wait to get to know everyone in my class as well as your families.  I know that starting this year feels different as we sadly acknowledge the passing of our leader, Mr. MacKenzie.  In honor of him, we will all work together to keep his motto alive, "Where effort and kindness count!"

I have attached your class schedule but I will also be handing out a paper copy of this in class:
