Thursday November 6th, 2014

WOW...what a great day. 

We had an amazing special guest presenter this morning (Maria Donoso) who came to speak with the students about her organization that is based out of Miami Florida called GLOW. Her organization works at providing water to children all over the world that do not have access to it. They also work with the people in using water effectively to grow crops, deal with erosion and protect the environment around them in the process. She talked about making a difference and that if you have an idea and you LOVE your idea...that you can do something. This could be in the form of fundraising, awareness raising or just becoming more educated about it and teaching others.

It was also GUEST READER DAY! We had many famous people roaming our hallways and reading to each classroom throughout the day. OUR classrooms had the following guest readers:

-Anna O'Neil (professional long boarder)
-Lori Gibbs (Radio Host 97.7)
-Michele Martin-Bossely (Canadian Author)
-Pam Krokker (Play-Wright)

TOMORROW IS OUR REMEMBRANCE DAY ASSEMBLY! 
Please have a conversation with your child about the importance and reasons behind Remembrance Day. You are welcomed to attend this assembly at 8:45am. Poppies will be handed out to each student tomorrow. If you have a donation for the poppy fund it will be most welcomed!
