Good evening everyone! I am so excited to announce our FINAL field
trip of this school year! We will be travelling to the zoo to observe the
animals in their habitats, as well as observe how important our natural
environment is for both humans and animals!! This ties subject matter from both
the grade 1 and grade 2 “Sharing the Planet” UOI! The cost of the trip is $22.00/student, which
includes travel and entrance into the zoo. I am looking for 3 more parents to
accompany us of this excursion! If you would like to come, please let me know
on the form I sent home today. The absolute last day to hand in money and the
permission form will be Friday, May 9th, 2014! Any student who would
not like to participate is expected to be at school that day, and will join
another class J
Please take a look at our summer camp programs offered here
at St. Jude’s. It is an amazing program this year with lots of fun activities! I know there are a few
students who have not yet registered for next year. I know there are only a
couple spots left for both grade 2, and grade 3. If you have not registered and would like to
come back next year, PLEASE do so soon.
