Hello Kindergarten Families,
Please find here the recording that was made this Thursday of your child's performance. We were so thrilled at how well they did for their first ever performance! Please enjoy the show! Mrs. Phillips Bert Edwards Fine Arts Teacher https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LtE8OSooBpo Wednesday, June 8, we will be travelling to Paul Lake to participate in the Learn To Fish program sponsored by the Freshwater Fisheries Society of BC. We will leave the school at approximately 9:00 and return for the end of the day. Our plan is to have our snacks upon arrival at the lake and some play time before our lesson. In previous years the presenters began our session with a lesson on fish and identifying them and knot tying with some hands-on practice. We then split into two groups and had some one-on-one lessons on how to cast a rod. The children will need to wait in line for their turn very patiently. We then each got our own rods and spent some time casting into the water and reeling them in. We are going to anticipate that our day this year will follow a similar format. Sometime in there we will also eat our lunches. At NO time will the children be allowed into the water as there will be no lifeguard.
The weather can be unpredictable so please plan accordingly and send both a jacket and a sun hat. Pre-dosing your child with bug spray and sunscreen in the morning is also a good idea. Please do not send these items with your child as they tend to overuse them and spray them everywhere, including in eyes, on food and on friends. The children seem to become voracious eaters on trips so some extra snacks or sandwiches would not be amiss and of course, a water bottle. There are washroom facilities at the park. Please join us if you are able as extra adult hands and eyes on field trips are always welcome. You will need to drive your own vehicle. If you are taking your child home in your own vehicle at the end of the day, please inform us before leaving. Unfortunately, no one caught anything last time but there were plenty of fish tales to tell later! |
