Good afternoon grade one families!

We had a wonderful last day before winter break. The grade ones looked so great and cozy in their PJs! We gathered as a school today to sing some holiday songs. This afternoon we built some adorable snowmen using several types of 2D shapes and different materials. 

Wishing you Happy Holidays and a Merry Christmas! Have a joyous and relaxing break! 

We are so excited for 2023 with our grade ones.


Love the grade one team

Good afternoon grade one families! We had an amazing day of learning. This morning we watched a short film of the beloved story The Gruffalo by Julia Donaldson. Afterwards we used loose parts to create scenes and characters and wrote sentences to describe our loose part art. The film was wonderful and our loose part creations were AWESOME! We are finished our Reader's Theatre and our puppets are proudly displayed in our windows. This year we made a fall tree at the Leighton Art Centre, a winter tree using cool coloured paint, a spring tree out of tissue paper and today we started our summer tree art using plasticine. They are inspired by Canadian Artist Barbara Reid. Love the grade one team
