Congrats to our Battle of the Books Winners! Presley, Macey, and Brooke did an excellent job and scored GOLD at this years competitions, beating our student teams from the other schools. This is a lot of hard work as each student must read a minimum (although they often read more) of 4 novels in preparation and then are quizzed on the reading. Way to go girls!
We also celebrated our students who worked super hard and earned 100% on their spell-a-thon this year. There are lots of hard words to learn and remember! Way to go Madeline, Macey, Connor, and Hanna (not pictured). Mrs. H-P stopped by to present them with their prize!
Connor was also our top fundraiser for the spell-a-thon this year in 3K! He was recognized at our school wide assembly and won a movie gift bag that included admission and some movie treats!
We also had the privllege of having Mrs. Wheeler, town of Drayton Valley counsellor, come in to read to us for Education week. The students love having someone else to listen to once in a while and the book (one in the series "And Then It Happened") was a hit! Thank you Mrs. Wheeler!
Finally, a very special thank you and Happy Mother's Day to all the women in the children's lives who love and care for them. Whether you are their Moms, Aunts, Grandmas, Sisters, or Friends, you make a difference and should be celebrated this Sunday.
