Weekend Update!

Hi Everyone! Thank you for checking in. This is just a quick blog post, as I've added a few extra details to the calendar below. The Scholastic Book orders went out today online, so should arrive very soon!
So far, I have 3 drivers for our field trip to the Helen Schuler Nature Center on Thursday April 25th.  Thank you to Christine Slomp, Lisa Pateman, and Marianne Forsyth who have signed up to drive. If you are able, or have a grandparent who is able to help us out even by just doing pick ups and drops off, that would be wonderful!  We are scheduled to leave the school by about 12:45, and then leave the nature center for about 2:45.  Send me an email if you can help out!
 Also our Grade 1 students will be performing at the Family Assembly on May 7th at 12:30.  The Grade 1 team is in the process of planning out the details of this assembly so we will keep you updated. 
Special Requests:
 We are on the lookout for plastic (see-through) egg cartons, AS WELL AS Styrofoam ones!  Think of us on your next grocery store trip!
Also, we are collecting nylon stockings!  We'll be using this for a project for our living and non living science unit.  If you have any to donate that would be great!  They can be any colour!
 Have a great weekend!
