Reading Program

Hope you are enjoying the reading program! Please be sure to send it back each Wednesday (at least) for a book exchange. The kids are very proud of themselves and are making great progress; it is exciting to see and promote this love for reading!

BIG Day Tomorrow!

The children are incredibly excited for the field trip tomorrow! A reminder that if your child receives HOT LUNCH on Tuesdays, please note that it will be shifted to WEDNESDAY this week instead. As a result......please, please, please send your child with a full lunch and snacks for tomorrow.

It is a busy day with lots of movement tomorrow so walking shoes might be a good idea! Thanks again for your support and being able to volunteer your time for this adventure; we really do appreciate it! See you tomorrow morning!

We Were Inspired!

A while ago we read a book by Barbara Reid and discussed how every illustration is hand crafted and prepared using plasticene. After watching a Youtube video (look in the "extra" tab for the video) on her techniques,we tried our own hand at creating some common birds. It sure is tricky to use plasticene as it needs to be warmed up, but Oh My Goodness look at their beautiful creations!

You Brush Your Teeth....

Just an FYI...

Dear Parent/Guardian:

Lucy Charbonneau, a registered dental hygienist with Ottawa Public Health, will provide a dental screening using a tongue depressor on May 22 & 23, 2014*, for grades JK, SK, 2, and other children as necessary. If your child’s grade is not selected, but you wish for the dental hygienist to see him/her, please advise the school. Only children identified as having dental needs will bring home a form. Follow-up school visits by the dental hygienist for individual children may be done. THIS DOES NOT REPLACE REGULAR DENTAL VISITS WITH YOUR FAMILY DENTIST.  * Some date(s) may be subject to change

This dental screening is offered in accordance with the Ontario Ministry of Health Promotion and Sport, Mandatory Health Programs under the Health Protection and Promotion Act. Personal Health Information is collected under the authority of the Health Protection and Promotion Act and will be used for the purpose of dental assessment, treatment and oral hygiene instruction, and for statistical purposes.  Questions concerning the collection and use of this information should be directed to the Supervisor of Dental Health Promotion, Ottawa Public Health, 400-1580 Merivale Rd., Ottawa, ON, tel.: 613-580-6744 ext 26376.
