Switzer's Kinders

Happy Friday!  The students did so well at their assembly yesterday. I am so proud!! Thank you for attending.  Today we wrote in our journals about our assembly experience, we had centres with Room 1, we practiced finding two numbers that add together to make 10, and we enjoyed the sunshine on the playground for our Friday recess.  We are still looking for donations for the Student Parent Council's Year End Carnival. We are in charge of the "summer fun" box. Two families have already donated beach towels and sand toys. We are still looking for things like sidewalk chalk, bubbles, kids sunglasses, sun hats, etc. If you are able to donate, that would be amazing!  Have an amazing weekend!
