I hope everyone feasted away and spent some lovely time together!! What a lovely weekend it turned out to be!
I had family visiting from the Kootenays, so we spent a lot of time playing games and visiting, so thus the late blog for everyone.
As I had taken some wonderful pictures I thought, better late than never...so hope you enjoy the pictures of your children and what we have done in the classroom, as much as I enjoyed taking them!
Have a great week!!

| Thank you for donating to the food bank. Did you know about 10,000 people visit the food bank a week? The little we can do is always appreciated and helpful. We talked to the children about how it is important to give back! |
 |
| We wrote what we already know about corn. Then we made a wall of the "Three sisters". Ask your children if they remember what the three sisters are and why we grow them together. |
