Classroom News - June 8

Sorry for the "no post" yesterday - I was away at the Gr. 4/5 Showcase Track and Field Meet yesterday.

Speaking of Track and Field, the Gr. 6-8 Track and Field Meet is scheduled for tomorrow (Thursday, June 9th).  Our Knights will be joining 5 other schools - Dr. Brass, Columbia, Yorkdale, Springside, Saltcoats - over at the YRHS Century Field.  Be prepared for a full day of running, jumping and throwing.

Lastly, our 7M class had a "talk" today about being leaders in our classroom, the building and the community as a whole.  Despite the end of the year coming soon, it is important for EVERYONE to continue to be kind, respectful and responsible.
