While this week has seemed to have less scheduled than the last few weeks, we have still been busy, and working hard in Grade Two. We did have an unexpected fire alarm go off while the kids were outside at lunch recess, on Monday. They did a great job remembering to go to our meeting spot (out on the field) and line up, quickly. That was great to see!
