We hope everyone will have a wonderful holiday break! Our Junior Kindergarten (JK) Registration season is fast approaching and we wanted to reach out to all of our families and friends to ensure that you are offered priority enrolment in our JK Program for the 2020-2021 academic year. Please let us know if you are interested in enrolling your child in our JK Program by Friday, January 10, 2020 at 4:00 pm. After this date and time, the spots will open up to new families on the waitlists.

    Fine Art – Cultural Artifacts
    In our current unit, we are learning about a range of cultures from around the world. For an in-class artwork assignment we want to use an artifact (from our own cultural background) and use our fine art skills to ‘draw what you can see’.
    We kindly ask that your child brings in an artifact from their culture to sketch. This artifact should be able to comfortably fit on your child’s desk. 
    Artifacts can include but are not limited to the following:
    -       Mask
    -       Pottery
    -       Dolls/Figurines
    -       Coin
    -        Religious artifact (eg. icon)
    -       Jewelry
    Please bring your artifact by Tuesday, January 14th.
    Artifacts will be returned at the end of this unit in January.
    Many thanks,

    Ms. Hughes & Ms. Coldwells

We then brainstormed the steps as a class.

Students then wrote a journal explaining how they would make hot chocolate.
