New ETA of 4:25 pm as we make our way through Toronto traffic!

Thank you Abbey Lane Intermediate families for the warm welcome upon our return! Enjoy the weekend and the many tales of our time at Kilcoo Camp.

Today Grade 8’s did a gallery walk in our school hallways to read & analyze a variety of excerpts from YA dystopian novels. The goal: Identify the elements of a dystopia to help prepare for our final reading focus of the year: dystopian-themed short stories.

Class 6/7 will be visiting the Art Gallery of Burlington in June to view, discuss, & create diverse pieces of art. Families: Please sign and return permission forms ASAP. Trip payments can be made via School Cash Online.

Only 2 Days to Go Until our annual Fun Fair on June 4th! Today, Monday, June 2nd, is your last chance to buy wristbands and pizza online. After today, they will no longer be available through the cashless system. Wristbands and pizza will still be available to buy on the day.

After Day 3 of EQAO, the Grade 6’s are taking advantage of the warm weather with a much needed body break. One more day of testing left.

Our annual Fun Fair has officially started and continues until 7:30 pm tonight. Drop by, take part & help support our school!

Well earned and well deserved! Congratulations L. Yourkevich 🇺🇦!!!!

Don’t forget that TOMORROW is our Spring into Summer Concert! The concert will take place in our gym & start at 6:30pm. See you there!

Class 6/7 has arrived at the Art Gallery of Burlington!

Thanks to the Art Gallery of Burlington for a wonderful morning full of discussing art and creating our own clay pinch pots. Pottery will go home with Class 6/7 students next week!

One of my favourite ways to end the year & challenge students to apply their learning about effective word choice, figurative language, & voice in their writing is w/ a mini-poetry unit. Class 7-1 tried their hand at online magnetic free-verse poetry & their work is outstanding!

Keeping Class 6/7 engaged (and distracted from the heat) with magazine collage art!

Could not be prouder of these graduates! Tonight they celebrate their hard work, determination and success. Thanks to our amazing “grad moms” for making the concourse a special place for students to celebrate tonight.

Tomorrow is the last day of school for the 2024-2025 academic year. Don’t forget about our Lynx Colours Spirit Day and early dismissal time at 1:45 pm.

Our final Graffiti Wall of the 2024-2025 school year.

And that’s a wrap! Thank you to Class 6/7, 7-1, & our graduates of 8-1 for an amazing year. Enjoy your summer break. See you September Abbey Lane!
