We finally come to a conclusion this week with Marsville (whew this has been a long process......) as we are headed to the Henry Grube on Friday to show off our projects. We will be leaving the school at about 9:20 and back at the end of the day. Since we only have 3 days this week in class, we will be trying to get in as much work time as we can. Don't forget that Tuesday and Thursday afternoons are set aside for finishing/last minute touch ups to the Marsville projects and Wednesday afternoon is another Track and Field rotation so we are definitely squeezed a little tight. I won't post what we're doing in the different subject areas this week as I am not sure how far we'll get. Check out last week's post for a general idea.
There are permission slips to get in. One for Marsville (for everyone) along with a twoonie, and one for the McGowan Parloff (just for students on a Parloff team....this race takes place during the afternoon and it is up at Hillside Stadium) along with a twoonie. The Marsville ones get turned in to me and the Parloff ones go to the office.
Speaking of Parloff.......this Wednesday we have the Parkcrest Parloff annual race. If you missed it last year....you're not alone. We did not get enough teams to enter in order to run it. This year we only have 6 teams (the event calls for 8) but we are going ahead with it. The event takes place after school this Wednesday and spectators are welcome. It starts with the grade 4s at roughly 3:15 and finishes with grade 7 (yes we had to borrow from Brock) at about 5:00. Come on out and cheer for Parkcrest!
On Thursday there is a 'Run, Jump, Throw' track meet up at Hillside. Anyone can enter (you register up there) and it is a short running race, a long jump, and a shot put event. It takes place after school and each participant is responsible for their own way to and from the event. This is not something that requires a permission slip as it is not school sponsored. I can give anyone a label (you need to put your name, your school name, and your age on it). That's all you need!
Please don't forget that all swimming money is due this week. That is because the city insists that all schools pay by the beginning of May. These lessons are part of our gym program and are a very important health/safety component. Thank you very much.
