Just want to remind you that many of Dewson's junior students (many of my former students) have been working hard to prepare the musical "Clowns". It will be presented at Dewson tomorrow (Tuesday) and Wednesday evenings at 7pm. It is less than an hour long. Please do support Mr. Greene and the entire cast and team by attending, if you are able. We were lucky to attend the dress rehearsal this afternoon, and can confirm that it's an outstanding show!! I also need to post a group Bravo for our entire class. We were an amazing audience during the performance today - better even than many older classes, and this can't have been easy considering we were cooped up inside all day. Merci mes amis!
Our April library trip is in 2 weeks. The note was sent home today. Please let me know if you can come.
Over the last few rainy days, we have kept busy inside working at Mme Diana's animal centre, building (shown below is a cleverly designed racing ramp for vehicles), playing games such as dominoes and snakes & ladders, and making cards to mail to Mme Dominique.
If you've been wondering, unfortunately Mme Dominique has badly injured her back and has not yet been able to safely return to work. She is missing us terribly, and we are missing her equally, however she needs to take care of herself first. We wish her a speedy recovery and are sending her a letter and some cards to cheer her up. In the meantime, we've had a few very helpful ECEs and we are lucky to have Mme Diana with us while we are shorthanded. With only one regular teacher in the room, the children are having to be extra patient with me, and extra helpful. I've been grateful for all the helpers I have in our class. The picture below is a beautiful sight I walked into last week, when it was just me, and I had to help students with their belongings when others were ready to begin. Some leaders emerged and started doing poems with the group that was waiting. Made my day!
Here are the beautiful flowers with the marbled paint design made by mixing paint with shaving cream. To the left are the aquariums we made with Mme Diana, and also the t-shirts we decorated for Pink Day.
