Happy Halloween!

Happy haunting from Mrs. Wasyluk & Miss Sandre :)

We had  a great day, thank you for sharing your treats with the class.

Tiessen's Pumpkin Patch

The kindergarten class enjoyed a beautiful day on our field trip to Tiessen's Farm. The farmer taught us about the history of the pumpkin, how long it takes to grow a mature pumpkin and what the vine and flowers look like. Then, we rode the wagon out to the pumpkin patch where we picked our very own pumpkin to take home. Our class competed with Mrs. Thrasher's class to find the largest pumpkin in the patch. We won! 

We will continue experimenting with pumpkins all through next week. We look forward to measuring, carving, and floating our pumpkin and eating some roasted seeds.

Thank you to all of our parent volunteers who took time to join us and help make our day so enjoyable!

For Unity and Peace

Today our class joined the whole student body as well as all of the students in the Windsor Essex Catholic District School Board, in praying the rosary as part of "a million children praying the rosary for unity and peace".

We also sent home a paper copy so that families may join us in prayer.

We hope you have a wonderful weekend! 

*Reminder*

For those who have not yet sent in the forms/money for the field trip please do so ASAP so that your child is able to attend!
Thank you :)

We hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving!
