MORE recycling

Hello! We are making birdhouses as part of our structures unit this week. We will be using recycled materials. Please send a water bottle, pop bottle, 1-2 litre milk container or a juice carton with your child to school by Tuesday. As a wrap up to this unit, we will soon be visiting to new SARCAN in Kamsakc.

Remind 101

I frequently send out reminders on remind 101... such as bring your skates tomorrow, no school, hot lunch, etc. I had sent home a paper copy of this a while ago, but only had a few sign up. Sign up if you want reminders.
