Our Kinders had a special presentation this week. They participated in a virtual presentation by our regional Dairy Educator, LeeAnne Vallance. The students learned about dairy cows, the milk process from cow to table, and did a survey/ graph of their favourite dairy product~white/chocolate milk, yogurt, ice cream, or cheese. What a great experience!

We would like to thank all of our students and parents/guardians for your patience and flexibility as we moved over to remote learning. We have worked together to create ways to keep our students connected. As announced by the government, we will be continuing with remote learning for the next couple of weeks. Classes are scheduled to return in person on January 25th. Our staff are available to support you. Please contact us if you have any questions or concerns. Stay safe and healthy Lairds!

We had a great week! Our students continued to enjoy their coding classes. They had fun experimenting with Marty, Dash, and friends. We learned about multiplication, measurement units, fractions, area, and 3 D shapes. Mrs.Harrison’s class learned different ways to show their math thinking in Bansho style. Mme. David’s Grade 3 class presented their play Chat Angora and the Grade 5/6 class presented their play Veux-tu aller au carnaval? Mme. Shane’s classes had fun learning different types of dances. We enjoyed the outdoors and the beautiful weather. We ended the week proudly wearing our Laggan colours. Next week is our Spring Break. We wish all of our families a wonderful week. Stay safe and healthy!
