Its that time of year again

This is a quick post to let you know that if you know anyone in the area that has NOT registered for Kindergarten in the fall that our Orientation is coming up. 

June 4th.

They will ride the bus that day and get picked up at 11am by parents.

Please have them contact me at the school.

It has finally arrived!!!!

So happy that spring has finally arrived!  Spent the weekend outside for the most part so I have a litte tan. 

Couple of notes for the upcoming days. 

• Each child must bring to school appropriate outdoor shoes for gym.  Please send a pair of runners so that the kids can practise outside.
• Be sure to send a jacket for the morning but if today is any indication, the winter boots should stay home and be sure to send them in layers.  It is not uncommon to have the kids change at recess as they are too hot.
• Please send them a HAT as the sun is hot, hot , hot.  I don't want to deal with sunstroke on a poor kiddie.

I hope you all got my note regarding the Kindergarten field trip on Wed. May 15th.  Please let me know if you have not. 

Oops!!!!

What a glorious morning I had.  Made lunches. Sent the kids off to school, drove to school.  And then I got a phone call asking if it was Kindergarten. 

Saving a life one worm at a time

Today was such an interesting day.  Just a regular day in Kindergarten.

1. We have been learning about our worm composting all year and today was the day that we had to harvest some castings.  The reasons for that are two fold: 

Slowly but surely.....

I am so ready for spring...... 

Happy Monday!

Hope your break was fabulous!  I am sure excited to put away my winter garb. Whenever that happens.  I am afraid my body may go into shock if we ever get double digits lol. 

It was back at 'er today.  And then they got tired. At about 930.  And then it was downhill.  Late nights, busy days, outside time.... all have taken a toll.  I knew it was going to be a long day when the one I own burst into tears when I told them it was gym time.  And he loves gym!

So, make sure they get some rest (good luck right) before Wednesday.  First days are hard on all of us.

Please make sure they have splash pants and rubber boots for when the mud hits, it will be bad.  I don't let them change if they have chosen to play in the mud or that is all I would do.  I do let them change if someone pushes them in etc.  Please make sure that they dress in layers.  It is cold in the morning but then when it warms up they can take off layers. 

Have a great night!

Snow day

These are the days memories are made of. Our parents talked about this and we didn't believe them. But now it's happened to us. Enjoy the time together , take a ton of pictures and go outside and play in the snow.

Report cards are at school. I will try to get them to you this weekend as I am currently stuck at home. Please co tact me privately and I will try to give you the correct time for interviews.

Below are some pictures I took yesterday. These are on the road outside our lane way. I tried to use my ten year old as a reference.
The last one is of a trailer in our yard. More and more of it is missing each time I look
