Hi Parents: We had a very productive Education Week! Speakers in the school for Grade 8, badminton practices continuing, Field Tests for Grade 6 students, Running Club in full swing, and Creative Adventures for Grade 2 – everyone was busy.

We started the week with Sturgeon Night of Music and Fine Arts and that was a great success. Thanks to everyone who was able to make it to the Winspear and Citadel.

“Hats on for Mental Health” was a good learning experience for the students – and there were some amazing hats around. Donations for the Oasis amounted to approximately $400. Thanks!

This week we welcomed four new additions to our school. Mrs. Gauthier’s Headstart class has four new baby chicks that hatched. Students from many classrooms are checking in to see the new little ones.
