Mrs.Folkerts Grade 1 Adventures in Primary 

Tomorrow is our Pumpkin Patch field trip. We will be leaving the school at 11am and our time at the farm is 11:30-1:30. The weather looks favourable but we need to dress for the mud. Please have the children wear boots and bring a jacket with a hood just in case of rain. We will not be bringing umbrella’s. It is Orange Shirt Day so we are hoping to have lots of orange shirts represented. If you do not have an orange shirt, then please wear your Knight Shirt.

Please send a bag with your child’s name on it so that they can pack their pumpkin home!

I look forward to seeing some of you there tomorrow!

This is a display of our self-portraits!  Don’t we look great?!!!!

As we see summer coming to an end, we took our Friday PE class outside to enjoy the glorious weather. The kids had fun playing soccer, playing catch with bouncy balls and also blowing bubbles in the wind.

Our theme this month is apples and we have some apple art displays.

Just a reminder that we will be doing our Terry Fox Run today. (Wednesday, Sept. 20) Students are invited to bring a toonie to school for a donation to the Terry Fox Foundation. We will all be running together on the field outside.
