Hello and Happy Monday.  This is just a quick update to remind Grade 7's that we have canoeing tomorrow afternoon and Thursday afternoon.  Come prepared with clothing that could possiby get dirty/mildly wet.  We do not have any desire to tip the canoes as we will be at Wascana Lake, but we need to be prepared just in case.  This is for all the students in my Math class.

Hello everyone.  I hope you are enjoying your afternoon.  We are in need of creativity for the next two days of school.

Tomorrow is May the 4th - come dressed as your favourite Star Wars Character, whether that means hair tied in buns above each ear for Princess Leia or wearing a sleeping bag and slothing around like Jabba the Hutt.

Also, Friday, May 5th, we are having a Hawaiian Dance.  Come dressed like your ready to enjoy the sun (no bathing suits of course).

See you tomorrow.

Good afternoon.

We have 34 days left of school, many of which will be taken up with other fun activities.  Please stay on top of all your assignments so that we don't fall behind this close to the end of the year.

Have a fabulous evening.
