It’s Friday! It always feels like such a strange week when we have a day off in the middle, but I hope you were able to remember and reflect on the freedoms we have here in Canada. It was a little different this year to have our assembly in the classroom, and on a screen, but I’m glad there is technology and ways that we can still honour and reflect on Remembrance Day and why we celebrate this day. We did some poppies for art, and I think they turned out so great!  This week has been pretty busy, with lots to do and try to fit in to a short week. We enjoyed doing some experiments about Force and Motion for Science, we have been playing a few different games to help us memorize our facts for making 10, and we were writing about our favourite pets, or pets we would like to have. We also had in person chapel this week, which always feels like such a treat when we get to worship together. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. See you on Monday!
