THE END OF A SUCCESSFUL YEAR



A LOOK INTO OUR WORLD
4M NEWSLETTER
NOVEMBER 2008

Dear Parents

As the Christmas holidays approach, we are spending time together working on Christmas activities, talking about the successes of the year, reflecting on our achievements and enjoying each other’s company. Reports have been completed and these will be mailed home in the first week of the holidays.

The children have accomplished a great deal and I think that they have enjoyed many of the learning opportunities that they have been involved in. They have been challenged, stimulated
and motivated to reach for the heights and to be the best that they can be.

I would like to thank you all for your support on the home front, and a special thanks to those parents who were able to spare some time to provide additional support in the classroom at various times throughout the year.

We have had a most rewarding year and the children can be very proud of their achievements.

I wish you all a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy holiday.
I wish all of the children the best of luck in Grade 5 or as they head off on adventures to new schools. It has been a pleasure to teach you this year!

With best wishes
Mrs. M


A NETWORK OF FRIENDS - A NETWORKED COMMUNITY
The children shared gifts, cards and poems with the folk at the Good Shepher Home. They also put on a Christmas concert.This is what the children said about the experience in their reflections:
"It was good to see the smiles on the peoples faces."
"I was glad to make the hour the happiest hour for some people."
"I felt proud to be part of TGS and to make a difference in the community."
"I was part of a community action and I wish that I could do this again."
"It was fun but hard talking to older people."
