WOW, WOW, WOW...the warm weather is finally here and we aren't going to complain how warm it has gotten! We went from winter to summer in a matter of days it seems.
This week we are continuing to plug along in all subject areas and staying as close to routine as possible. The study of poetry (reading and writing) continues in language this week while we look to wrap up our understanding of simple machines in science. Not much has changed from last week...we continue to plug away each day. Reminders 1. Bike Rodeo- This Wednesday (June 12) our class will be participating in a cycle safety/bike rodeo in the school yard put on my the Ottawa Safety Council. Students MUST have a proper fitting bicycle helmet to participate (it's the LAW!!!) and are asked to bring their bike or scooter to school on Wednesday. Bikes and scooters can be stored in the school day care yard at the north-west side of the school. Students who take the bus will have to have a parent drop off and pick up their bike or scooter at the school on Wednesday as they cannot take them on the bus. Look for the class sign to place your bike in the right area. Scooters and bikes must be picked up at the end of the day as there is no secure storage overnight. 2. Field trip forms- please return the signed blue field trip form along with the $5 ASAP. As I say to the students- no signed form, no trip! If you are able to accompany is on this trip, please let me know ASAP. 3. Splash Pad outing- we are planning on visiting the community splash pad on Wednesday, June 26th in the middle part of the day (11-2ish). If you are able to accompany is on the walk there and back as well as the duration at the park, please send me an email or note in the communication book. We require at least two parent volunteers to be able to go. 4. Library Books- the library will be closing down for the summer on Friday, June 14th. All school library books must be returned by Friday so that they can be organized and re-shelved appropriately for the fall. 5. Stream of Dreams- if you have not paid the $2 participation fee for the Stream of Dreams workshop, please send that money in ASAP. We will be having our workshop on June 19th. 6. Volunteer Tea- as a thank you for your time, the staff at Vimy are hosting a volunteer tea on Monday, June 17th from 8:30-9:30 am in the school Makerspace. All school volunteers are welcome to attend. Please RSVP by June 13th at [email protected] 7. 2019-2020 School Year- if your child is not returning to Vimy Ridge in September 2019 and have not yet notified the office, please do so immediately. We are working on class assignments for next year and this is would help us tremendously. Get out and enjoy the sunshine! Stephanie :)
