Wed Oct 6th

Good Afternoon!

Today we had our beautiful New Testament Celebration. The wonderful Father Catfish presided our celebration and was a huge hit! He brought along his cute dog named NEMO! The students had a great time :)

Tomorrow we have a presentation from a Canadian author: Eric Wilson. He is famous for his mystery stories and has sold books across the globe. I briefly read a chapter from his book, "Vampires in Ottawa". The students were very interested in this book. Maybe they might even ask you to go to the library to get a book written by him.

Tomorrow is Thirsty Thursday for food donations for the food bank. Please send a food item with your child if possible.

Homework: The students are working on a math review right now for their test. This will be assigned over the weekend if not finished during class time. Also they have a math unit test on Tuesday Oct 12th. The science projects are also due next week.

Have a great evening!

Mrs. Denman

  1. My son has been speaking a lot about Father Catfish :)
    I was wondering if all the children could please bring the review for the Math test home even if they finish it in class. I would like to study with my son as well :)

  3. Yes he is quite a fellow. We had the pleasure of listening to one of his homilies last weekend. I'll tell you I have never been more interested (of course the props helped: "Yoda", "Darth Vader Pez dispenser", and a "Rubber Chicken"). The kids just loved it.
