Baby Chicks

We have been learning about the life cycle of a chicken. We were very excited to learn how the chick grows inside an egg and see the chicks hatch from their eggs.

The teddy bear's picnic was fun for all. We brought our favourite stuffed animals on obstacle courses, had a teddy bear toss, sang songs, measured and weighed our stuffies to make pet certificates and we finished our activities with tasty treats. We would like to give a very special thanks to all of the parents who joined us for the picnic.

Students enjoyed a visit from the Windsor Symphony Orchestra for the Peanut Butter and Jam performance. We even had special performances by some of our students.

Classroom News

We would like to extend a warm welcome to ‘Miss Abbey’ who will be our new   co-op student. Abbey is a grade 11 high school student from Tecumseh Vista. She will be helping in our classroom for the remainder of the school year. She is an amazing student leader who will be assisting us in any way she can in our kindergarten classroom.

                       

Many students have shown an interest with trains and other types of vehicles. Students will be given the opportunity to make home-made trains or other creations on Thursday. Please send boxes, rolls, tubes, used wheels, bottle caps, string, pipe cleaners and/or any other odds and ends that your child could use to build. Please make sure all items are sent to school by Thursday.

We will be reading the polar express book in different ways and learning about different types of trains. We will be making train tickets and look forward to boarding the 'Polar Express' at Tecumseh Vista on Friday while we watch the polar express show.
