Good afternoon everyone!

I hope everyone had a lovely night!

Our Lost and Found bins are over flowing! When you have a moment, please sort through the Lost & Found items (they are on a table by the gym) and take what belongs to your child(ren). At end of day Monday, May 29th, items except for uniform pieces, will be donated to a local charity.

Today we had a chance to go and visit Mr. Iqbal's science lab to see some baby chicks. Mr. Iqbal's science class has been waiting for these eggs to hatch for quite a while. It was so neat!

This little chick was born 15 minutes before this picture was taken!

Three day old chicks!
