Congratulations to Isabel & Cole on their Baptism last weekend! Welcome to the Church family!

We also wish our Grade 2s all the best as they prepare this final week for their First Communion this coming weekend! Last Saturday, we spent the morning together with their families in prayer and community! It was a great day!

OUR LARVAE HAVE ARRIVED!!!! Feel free to come in the class and check out our new "pets" that we are raising until they emerge into Painted Lady Butterflies. We will be able to release them in about a month's time.

I have MOVED our provinces and capitals test to FRI MAY 5th, as our Grade 2 friends are busy with First Communion prep all week. I have had questions regarding the format of the test. It will be labelling provinces on a map and then the second part is matching the provinces with their capital cities. Students do not need to know WHERE the capital cities are on the map.

Our class book is taking shape. This week, we are working on writing their good copies. Each child has a page for illustration and one written page. There will also be a class photo included. If you decide to purchase a copy of this book, and have indicated on your form otherwise, please let me know by THURSDAY. (I am away on Friday and will ship the book out then).
