Hello MAS Families! It is very  hard to believe that we
have only 5 weeks left to the school year, but we have lots and lots of fun and
learning still planned!! This week on Thursday classes participated in outdoor
learning day. There was writing outside, number hunts, kite flying, outdoor
classroom play, and much more.

 

Information Items-

 

No School Monday- Reminder that there is no school
Monday. It is Victoria Day.

 

Outdoor Footwear- Our students have been doing and
participating in phys ed outside as often as we can. It is important that they
have outdoor sneakers or bring outdoor sneakers with them daily for safety when
playing games, running, etc in the grass.

 

Intergenerational Day in Canada June 1st- Intergenerational
Day Canada was initiated in 2010 across Canada as a day to recognize and
celebrate the importance of respectful intergenerational relationships across
our country. Children/youth and seniors coming purposefully together improves
mental health of all involved, defeats ageist attitudes, builds empathy and
empowers both generations within all-age-friendly communities. On June 1st
we will walk to York Care and parade around the outside of the building waving
to our friends. We will also be making cards to be given to York Care
residents.

 

Kindergarten Orientation- This will be taking place
on Wednesday, May 26th and Wednesday, June 2nd. Our
pre-Ks will be visiting one at a time to see the classroom, take a tour of the
school, and moms/dads/guardians will get to meet with Mrs Burnett to answer any
questions they may have. If you have  pre K coming in the fall, please be
sure to sign up for orientation by clicking on the link. We can’t wait to meet
them! https://outlook.office365.com/owa/calendar/KindergartenOrientation@nbed.onmicrosoft.com/bookings/
