President's Day Weekend

Thanks so much to Nicole for coming with us to Balch Creek on Tuesday! Although some of the students wished they were back at school reading History Alive :) , I had a great time and we all enjoyed seeing Balch Creek raging through Lower Macleay Park. Click here to see pictures of students identifying winter twigs, cowering in the 'stone castle' for a bite to eat, and looking at physical features of Balch.

Inquiring minds have wanted to know...who will be taking over for me while I am on Maternity Leave May and June?! I am pleased to announce that Dylan McCann will be the sub. Included in this weeks email home, there is a letter from him.
