Dear families,
This week LKS is showing its spirit by wearing blue and white to support the Maple Leafs in the playoffs. Go Leafs!
Information regarding Tombola Leaf Campaign for Springfest:
The Tombola Leaf Campaign is one of LKS's most popular events. Last year, this campaign raised $8,000 in donations to the school! Students are encouraged to bring in cash or cheque donations that will be pooled each day for each classroom. Each class will receive a Tombola "Leaf" for every $5.00 raised. The leaves are proudly displayed on classroom doors. The classes with the most Tombola Leaves will WIN prizes. (The Tombola Committee will assess each class's success on a pro rata basis so that classes with fewer students are not disadvantaged from being eligible to win.)
This Campaign continues next week: Apr 29-May 3. Buy 1, 5 or 10 leaves! Simply send your cash or cheque (payable to "LKS & Parent Council") in an envelope marked "Tombola Leaves" with your child to their classroom. Thank you for your support!!
Last week and this week we are learning about three-dimensional shapes and the children had fun identifying the shapes of classroom objects. We will continue to learn about shapes this week.
We also completed a booklet called "I Know it is Spring when..." Our Spring Rain marble paintings are displayed in the classroom and look wonderful.
The children did a wonderful job at the Sharing Assembly and recited the poem "I Love the Earth." Congratulations to Alex, Ava, Jack and Yoel for their well-deserved certificates for Co-operation.
We also completed our April calendars and our "This is me in April" page.
The children should have a good idea now about what goes in the blue bin and what is garbage. We also wrote about what is good/not good for the Earth.
Please note that the date of our Artist in the classroom visit has been changed to May 7, and that Mr. Blais no longer requires volunteers in the computer lab.
Have a wonderful week!
Mrs. Tyndall
