Sports Day Information

Today we continued our animal research. Some students have very unique animals and are finding it difficult to find all the information they need during class time. Ms. Binks is trying to find more websites and even print off information for us to use, however it may be beneficial to research at home or at the public library if you are having troubles.

In math we continued to work on fractions. We learned about fractions as part of a whole. We designed pictures on a hundred square and had to create fractions based on the number of colored squares we used. We will continue to work on fractions into next week.

This afternoon we watched the division 1 dress rehearsal. Some of our favourite performances were Land of the Silver Birch, Spiderman and the dance moves at the end of the concert. Have fun to those of you coming to the concert tonight!

An important letter was sent home today regarding changes in school times for the 2017/2018 school year.

Here is a message from Mr. Sadowsky about Sports Day:

Our sports day this year is on Monday May 29th from 12:30-2:30. We will have regular classes leading up to lunch.

Our theme this year is Beach Party! I have chosen activities that fit with the pe curriculum but follow a beach party theme. There will be a few stations that involve water with the intention of a little water fun but not to soak any of the students. All stations are completely voluntary and if you wish your child not to participate in the water activities please let them know to avoid these stations. All stations are run by a teacher with other teachers and EA's floating throughout the stations to provide assistance. We ask that if you wish to dress to the beach theme that you stick with the school dress code as outlined in the Beddington Heights school handbook found on the school homepage.

Hats, sunglasses and water are highly encouraged. Sunscreen is also reccomended but must be administered by the student themselves or by a parent beforehand. 

We will finish our sports day with the traditional races followed by freezies provided by our parent council before dismissal. 

We do have an alternate date of June 2nd should the weather not cooperate. 

Please direct any questions or concerns to Mr. Sadowsky.
