Speak tenderly to them. Let there be kindness in your face, in your eyes, in your smile, in the warmth of your greeting. Always have a cheerful smile. Don’t give only your care, but give your heart as well –Blessed Mother Teresa of Calcutta

Week 27! 

Congratulations to all the students who celebrated the sacrament of Reconciliation recently.

Another three Lexia awards earned this week!
We prepared for our Ukrainian egg making by thinking about the symbols and colours we might use.

 We made our Ukrainian Eggs on Monday afternoon.  




We also read this wonderful story about Babushka and Rechenka who both created beautiful decorated eggs.
You can listen to the story below.
Thank you to to all our great helpers who came to make our Ukrainian egg making a success.

 In science we continued to explore magnets by testing their strength.

 A huge thank you to everyone who came out to conferences this week.  It is incredibly valuable for us all to meet to celebrate your child's learning and growth in grade two.

In religion we have been exploring the journey to Easter using our Resurrection Eggs.  Please encourage your child to retell the story of Holy Week using the symbols below.


 On Thursday morning 2H and 4Mo led the school in a Holy Thursday/Good Friday liturgy.  The students did a tremendous job!  




 The students have been talking about Inuit culture with Miss Adams in social.  They made these cute Inuit pictures to display in the hallway.

I hope everyone has a wonderful spring break this week.   It is hard to believe we only have three months left in our school year.  Where has the time gone?

From my family to yours, we wish you a very blessed Easter.
