Elk Island National Park

Hi Everyone,
We will be taking a trip to Elk Island National Park on May 13. Notes have gone home, however we are still waiting for some to return. Please send these back as soon as possible.

Also, please know that our High Jump competition has landed on the same day. We have talked with students and given them a choice. If they make the high jump team, they must decide whether they would like to attend the high jump meet or the field trip Students who make the team can choose whichever they like. It was just too inconvenient to change the date of our trip after everything has been booked.

I have also uploaded our April / May newsletter to our class webpage.

Mr. C
