Kindie Korner Adventures

Next week, our school will be taking part in Waste-Free Lunch Week as we celebrate and care for our environment!

We are encouraging all students to bring lunches that create as little garbage as possible. This is a great opportunity for students to learn how small choices can make a big difference for our planet.

Here are a few simple ideas to help:

• Use reusable containers instead of disposable packaging
• Pack drinks in reusable bottles
• Choose snacks without wrappers when possible (like fruits and veggies)
• Bring cloth napkins instead of paper ones

We understand that making a completely waste-free lunch isn’t always possible, and that’s okay—every small step helps!

Thank you for supporting your child in making environmentally friendly choices. We are excited to see how our students can work together to reduce waste and take care of our Earth!

Students are also invited to wear earthy colors (blue, green, brown) on April 22. If students would rather not, they should wear their uniform instead.

“For you are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus”

Galatians 3:26

Today you will be receiving a blue form from the school that has been requested to send home by the Ministry of Education. This form is to confirm that you have received and reviewed your child’s interim report.

We kindly ask that you complete and return this form to your child’s teacher by Friday April 10. Your prompt attention to this helps us ensure our records are accurate and up to date.

Thank you!

There’s a lot of exciting stuff coming up- please take a minute to add these things to your calendar so you and your kiddo don’t miss out!

School resumes March 30th.

Today we took time, in small groups, to look at the Decodable Passage that is part of our UFLI program. This week’s passage is entitled “I Sit, I Tap.” The decodable passages are made up of a combination of irregular words that the students have been introduced to as well as words that are decodable (meaning they can sound them out). Some of the students were successful at reading the passage independently and did not need to sound out any of the words (they could just see the words and read them). Some students could read parts fluently but needed to sound out other words and some students were working on tracking the words in the text by pointing, one word at a time, and reading along with me. We are all working on these skills at different levels.

The students are bringing this home today. Please take some time to go over it with your child. You might be surprised at how well they can read it!

We encourage families to participate together, as it’s guaranteed to be a blast for everyone!  Please remember that an adult must accompany students and they cannot be dropped off and left unattended at this event.
