News from our Kindergarten Classes...

Our Kindergarten classes had a fabulous trip to Chudleigh’s Apple Farm! After the exciting bus ride, they had the opportunity to pick apples from the trees and learn some interesting apple facts. It was great to meet a whole bunch of farm animals, play in the hay and enjoy lunch in the fresh country air. A great time was had by all!
Last week, the Kindergarten classes walked over to the Dufferin-Clarke fire station to donate food that they have been collecting since Thanksgiving. They dropped the non-perishable food donations into the bin that is distributed amongst local food banks on a regular basis. 

 This was wonderful experience for our students as they had the chance to learn about charity and the importance of giving back to those less fortunate then themselves. They also learned that by donating food, they are community helpers!
Finally, we had a visit from a very special person, Mrs Schwartz our Kindergarten teacher from last year and her new baby Brooke Isabella came to say "hi" to us. We think that baby Brooke is so cute and we loved it when she smiled at us! Congratulations to Mrs. Schwartz! We hope you bring Brooke to visit us again soon.  

Until next time...with love from Mrs Sevel and Mrs. Piso and Mrs. Sentheyval and Ms Almeida and their students.
