Welcome to Grade 5!  I hope that everyone had a fun, safe summer.  Things are going to be a little different this year than in the past for Grade 5 students.  For the first half of the year, until the end of January, one class of Grade 5 students will be with me following the Intensive French Program, while the other class will be with Mrs. Manderville following a compacted version of the regular Grade 5 program.  At the beginning of February we will switch classes.   I am very excited to have the chance to teach all of the Grade 5 students.  See you on the first day of school!

I am very excited to announce that my class, along with the other grade 5 class, will be travelling to Camp Sheldrake on June 17th for our end of the year field trip.  This is a big year for the students as it is their last year in Elementary School. The trip to Camp Sheldrake is always reserved for the Grade 5’s to celebrate their years in elementary school.    They will leave the school at 8:35am and return just before dismissal at 3pm.  Their day will be packed with activities such as repelling, canoeing, archery, art and games.  They will have to bring a bagged lunch that day, as we will be only taking a brief lunch break from 12:30-1pm.  Also, please make sure they have sunscreen, bug spray, towel and bathing suit in case they have the chance to go swimming in the river that day if a lifeguard is available.  If it is raining on this day, please come prepared for the weather with umbrellas and rain attire.   The cost of the trip is $15/student and it is well worth the price considering a day at this camp for your child during the summer months is $40.  Hopefully all the students will be able to finish the year off with this amazing adventure.  The money for this will be due in to me by June 13th.    I know the students are going to love it!!!   Also, on June 7th, we will be travelling to French Fort Cove for some Geo-caching with our pen pals from N.S.E.E.  There is no cost for this trip.   On June 22nd, we will be going to J.M.H. in Miramichi for our track and field day.  Students need to bring their lunch, lots of water, sunscreen and insect repellent.    Mme Jen

What an exciting day!  We spent the morning at M.V.H.S. doing the High Elements Course.  We each took a turn climbing up a ladder, then using "staples" to climb the rest of the way until we were 25 feet high.  Then we had to walk across a catwalk or a cable to the other side and back.  Finally we had to drop off and be lowered down by Mr. McKinnon or Mr. Pinder. This afternoon Mrs. Lori Brophy came to our class to teach us the fine art of calligraphy or "beautiful writing."  Check out our pictures of fun things we have been doing!

It is hard to believe that we only have 6 weeks of school left, and only 4 Mondays!  This Friday we will be travelling to Miramichi Valley High School to the High Elements course.  Students will need to wear comfortable, athletic clothing and shoes. Next Tuesday, we will be having our unit test on Weather.  We will be reviewing all this week for the test.   Have a great week!
