Duffle Bag Theatre & Pj Pancake Day!

Friday started off great with our PJ and Pancake day! Lots of students were here and ready for 8 am! The pancakes were fluffy, covered in syrup and delicious. Thank you to all of our support staff for putting this on for us! 



Also, in the afternoon we were so lucky to have the Duffle Bag theatre here! This a a threatre troupe who performs around Canada and they were absolutely hilarious! 
They performed the Three Musketeers with a little help from the audience. 







As part of our Social Studies curriculum, we are taking part in our world and community. We have decided as a class to start a fundraising campaign. The students were shown three different charities in and around our community, which then as a class we voted which to fundraise for. The results were: The Stollery Children’s Hospital! We will be starting fundraising from April to June 24th and our target goal is $200.

To fundraise, we have decided to have the following events:
Guess How Many? (April - May)
A jar in the office will hold a variety of different objects. Students and staff  donate 25 cents to “Guess How Many!” At the end of each week the winner will be announced and given a prize.  
Possible Parent Donations: Items to put in the jar (pretzels, candies, erasers, pencils, etc.)

Snack Sale (May; date TBD)
Our take on a bake sale! We will be selling baked goods and healthy snacks at snack break to students for 50 cents. We like to promote the importance of healthy foods to keep our minds and bodies healthy. We are hoping to have homemade snacks. If you are interested in baking goods, creating healthy snacks, or volunteering time please let me know!!
Possible Parent Donations: Veggies, Fruits, Baked goods.

Bring in any used or old children’s books your family or friends would like to donate. Any reading level will be accepted, as long as it is child appropriate. The book sale will be held the week of June 21st. Books may be sent to school after May 1st.
