Golf Field Trip

Hello Parents/Guardians:

Students in Grade 5 are being sent home today with a field trip permission form for the upcoming Golf trip. Information about the trip will be on the form. This is our first trip with the Grade 5 - 8 classes and we are very excited about it! Students will be receiving instruction from a CPGA instructor and then will test their skills on the driving range. Please fill out the forms and return them by Monday, September 25 so that your child can participate! Looking forward to seeing them all there!!!

Hello again!

I have some pictures from an exciting game of Eraser Football that the Grade 5 students played. Getting outside on the turf field allows the students to be active, learn new skills, and have a great time! Here are some of the action shots and highlights!

Strategy is a must! 

Strategy time and making sure the red team is not eavesdropping!

Good afternoon Parents/Guardians:

An update on the Elementary PE classes thus far. A strong focus has been on cooperative games which develops teamwork and partnership. Fair play, encouragement, teamwork, sportsmanship, resolving conflict have all been frequent discussions in class each day! It is a work in progress but the students are learning and improving each day!

Rules to the gym where designed cooperatively with each class. We narrowed them down to four simple rules each student can recite with confidence.
1) Red means stop (test your child and ask them to explain why)
2) Fair Play
3) 3 Whistles = Stop, Look, Listen
4) Have Fun!

Having such beautiful September weather we have done our best to get outside as much as possible. Students have tested the sports court, jungle gym, and turf field. Hopefully this good weather lasts!
