Grade 1/2 Field Trip

The grade 1/2 classes went to the Science Museum and the Planetarium. We had a great time, and  would like to thank the volunteers that helped on the trip. Enjoy the video!

 

Buddy Reading with Grade 5/6!

Buddy Reading with Lucas is great! We got to have popsicles on the last day. Buddy Reading is when you read with your buddy from Grade 5/6 and Lucas. We read twice a month and Lucas you missed the popsicles. - Riley

Sprayer Comes To School

 

My dad brought the sprayer to school because I wanted to show the class. It sprays the field with chemicals. The booms go out and in. My Dad likes sprayers and my Pappy sprays the fields too. I have sat in the sprayer with my family. - Molly

In the cab there was a steering wheel and we could move the steering wheel up and down. Molly's Dad's sprayer had auto steering. When I was in the cab the orange stick handle moved the sprayer forwards and backwards. Under the sprayer is the hose where you put the chemicals. The sprayer is like a combine except it has a boom. The boom is at least 20 meters long. He can lower the boom up and down. He can change the tires with a forklift. - Alex

Community Helpers

My mom brought a dog and I got to throw the ball. My mom works at Customs and helps protect Canada. We got to see her vest, belt, badges and radio. She played a game with us. The dog's name is Zoe and she finds danger. She is like a dog alarm. We played some more games. My mom works with Brad and after they gave us a magnet with the police dogs on it. We got a Zoe card with her face on it. Zoe does what Brad says to do. - Hayden

My dad is a Police Officer. He wore his uniform. He brought a taser gun and handcuffs. He helps people that are in danger. Sometimes he works all night. He drives a police truck. - Devron

Snowy Has Kittens

My cat Snowy had 3 kittens on Mother's Day. I saw Snowy hiding in my Dad's bin. My sister tried to feed the kittens an onion. My dad thought the kitten was a rat. I had lots of fun. - Logan

The kittens were really cute and also very small. They were only 1 day old. When I went to Logan's house I got to feed them. Their eyes were still closed. - Hana

Haylee's Dad Brought the Race Truck

I got to hold a big trophy because my dad won a race. He started the truck and it was loud. The 3 colours of the race truck are black, purple and white. My dad races his truck in Morden and the USA. I like to watch my dad race and there is a candy toss at the race. - Haylee

I liked the truck. We couldn't go in it because it was sharp inside. He brought a race truck to school and he raced on Thursday. The truck was really cool - Natasha
