Grade 1

June 12-16

Hello Grade One Families!

The children had a wonderful time playing in the beautiful weather this week. We have been so blessed with sunshine all week!

This coming week we will complete our UFLI unit on reading longer words! This will be our final UFLI week! WE are so proud of all the progress the children have made with their reading this year. Thank you to all families for taking the time to read at home with your children. Please continue to do so over the summer 🙂

We completed the final lesson in the IAAGFG program today. We discussed secrets and when secrets are okay and when they are not okay. Please read the prayer at the back of your child’s booklet with them over the weekend. The booklets can remain at home now.

I just wanted to send a message to say thank you for the lovely birthday card and gift! It was such a special surprise when Mr. Ren came by the classroom to drop it off in class! It is such a blessing to be part of the St. Paul School community!

Can you believe we only have 12.5 more days of school left?

Tuesday, June 20 ~ The last school Mass will be this morning at 9:15 am. It is a special Farewell Mass for the Grade 7 students which is why it is on Tuesday not Thursday this week.

Friday, June 23 ~ There will be an appreciation breakfast for parents before we begin our school “Fun Day”. Dismissal on this day is at 12:30pm. Parents are welcome to be with us for any or all of this day.

Monday, June 26 ~ The Primary students will be going to the Primary year end picnic. Permission forms sent home this week. 10:00 am arrival, and 1:00 pm pick up.

Wednesday, June 28 ~ This is the last day of school for the students. Dismissal on this day will be at 12:00pm. CSL reports will be sent home on this day.

We will be sending home more information about all of these days as they get a bit closer. We hope that you will be able to join us for many of these school community events.

Please email us at kdossantos@stpaulschool.ca and mcarroll@stpaulschool.ca, or write a note in your child’s agenda if you have any questions or concerns.
