It's not just about wearing pink...it's about acceptance, love and kindness in all that we do. Thank You to room 209 & 211 for leading our Honking for Love & Kindness and to all the drivers who supported us by honking on Leslie St! #DayOfPink

The 4s and 5s from both room 209 and 211 did a wonderful job against their parents, siblings, and teachers this morning! I'm amazed they only beat us by 1/2 a point ... ;) (Way to go Division 2 Champions!!!)

We had a blast today becoming the tellers of our own stories! Matt from filmcampinabox shared some of his master filmmaker tips, helping us produce some great short - and very silent - films!

Getting ready for the first day of school is always a bag of mixed emotions; happy to be back ... excited to meet new faces and reunite with old friends ... and a bit anxious about the unknowns. We can't wait to see you on Tuesday, September 3rd, Roadsters!

The grade 4s and 5s know that collaboration is important ... especially when they are building towers with one another in class and passing balls in gym! Working together with open ears and kind words can make any challenge easier to meet.

Feelings. We all have them: big, medium, and small. After reading a book about how different people experience the world and a conversation about our own feelings, Rm 209 planned out skits to explore the different outcomes that might happen when we react or respond to situations.

Room 209 is made up of a wonderful cast of interesting and colourful characters. We are interested in so many different things, and showcase so many different talents ... we can be ourselves everyday and STILL show the world all of our different sides!

We started by making a mark. We used paint, marker, pastels, water, paper, and plasticine to see where our initial mark would take us. No mistakes were made, but chances to figure out what kind of dot felt good to each individual artist met us along the way! Peter H. Reynolds

We had a reflective day reading books, having discussions, and listening to people like Ms. Webstad explain their experiences in a residential school. We also started talking about Truth & Reconciliation, and began exploring the importance of the Dish with One Spoon wampum, too!
