Reader's from Royal Oak Intermediate

Today we had some wonderful visitors from Royal Oak Intermediate. The students work as part of an English as a second language group and in this group, have worked to create their own story books. They kindly brought these beautiful books into share with the children in the Junior School. The books were wonderful and our children really enjoyed listening to them! Thank you :)

Worms Worms Worms!

Mrs McConnell has been teaching the Junior classes all about worms and our school worm farm. Today Mrs McConnell visited the children in Room 3: We got to check out the worms up close! We put on gloves and handled the worms and used magnifying glasses to get a really good look! Then we learnt all about the life cycle of worms. We loved it! Thank you Mrs McConnell!
