School Council Meeting

Thank you to everyone that joined us for our School Council meeting on Wednesday. The grade 5 teachers, Ms Dragatis and Mr Barker, shared how they create interesting ways of developing young authors utilizing the Narrative Writing Diamond format. They also described a very exciting time had by our grade 5 and 6 students in October at Kamp Kiwanis. Dr Farrah and friends shared a special presentation on eye health and vision therapy. Thanks and gratitude to our amazing council for all of the work they do in ensuring all of our students have the opportunity for exceptional experiences.
