It is our final few days of school this year.  We have packed up most of our books and papers and supplies.  The portfolios were sent home and all we have left to clean are the desk tops and lockers.  It has been a great year!  I can't believe that it is already over.  We have learned a lot together this year and I have loved having your children in my classroom. 
May God bless your family and I hope you have a wonderful summer!

Here are a few pictures to share -

OAK HAMMOCK MARSH FIELD TRIP
Up next - we have our last field trip of the year to Oak Hammock Marsh next week on Tuesday, June 16.  This will be an all day trip and the children will need to bring along their lunches.  I sent home a green permission form today.  Please sign and return it to school by Friday.  We will need parent drivers again so if you missed going to the zoo (or want to come along again), here is your opportunity to join us!  Oak Hammock Marsh is near Stonewall, Manitoba. 
We will be doing three programs -
1) A Marsh Walk-About 2) Critter Dipping and 3) Exploring the Center

READ-A-THON
Thank you for helping make our Read-a-thon a great success.  We raised over $4000 to use for new literacy resources for our school.  Here are a few photos of our Read-a-thon last Wednesday.

ZOO TRIP
We had lots of fun on our trip to the Zoo last Friday.  Thank you to all of the parents who drove.  We saw the new Journey to Churchill exhibit and saw Hudson, the polar bear.  Mrs. Penner's sister works at the zoo so she was able to let us pat a camel and watch her train the tigers.
