This Friday, the students are asked to wear their class colour for our assembly (GREEN for our class). They are also invited to express themselves in the way they dress, as our assembly is about celebrating diversity.
Coming Events:
Scientists in the School - We will be having a special science presentation called Marvelous Machines. We will be looking for volunteers for the afternoon of Tuesday, April 16th (11:25-3:00). Please let us know if you're interested. The cost of this presentation will be generously covered by the John McCrae School Council.
Field Trip - Our final field trip of the year will be to the African Lion's Safari, on Thursday, May 30th. The cost of this outing is more than most of our trips ($31), which is why we are sharing this information now, so that you know well in advance.

Today's Trip:
We had a fabulous time today! We had amazing volunteers (thank you so much!), great weather, and the students loved both the park and the Children's Art Factory. We asked the students what they liked best at the Art Factory and here are some of their answers:
- The moonsand (MANY students!)
- Painting my face
- The stage
‘- Cause you could make stuff there.
- Spraying water.
- Everything! (several students)
