It has been a great week. We had our anti-bullying assembly on Tuesday. Always good to have conversations around being a good friend and what that looks like. We started playing soccer in PE, the students have really seemed to enjoy that so far. We also started a new unit for Social Studies, talking about the physical characteristics of communities. I hope you all have a great weekend 🙂
