Throughout the final three weeks of the 2025/26 school year, your child(ren) will continue to engage in literacy, numeracy and curriculum-based activities to consolidate the academic skills that they have been developing throughout this school year. Second term report cards will go home with students on Wednesday, June 24th.
During the final weeks, classes are also engaging in some "extras" to enrich their experience at school.
To highlight a few but not all of the extra opportunities: our Grade 1 and ½ classes will be creating outdoor wooden Stinger decor that will be on display in the fall. A BIG thank you to Steve Dick who created the wooden hives, bees and signs for this project and for our students to show their creativity.
Our Grade 6/7 and 7/8 classes are working with their educators and Mr. Cardy, a LDSB tech/stem teacher to create individual wooden boxes.
The Grade 3/4s made juggling balls with Ms. Edmondson and the Ks in Ms. St-James' class had a reading party with Teddy and Franklin. Meanwhile the KB's in Wilson, Kekewich and Ms. Carli's group celebrated International Day of the BEE with toast and honey!
Twenty-one athletes will represent Sinclair at the District Track Meet on Tuesday. This will be Ms. D's last "official" track meet with Sinclair. Ms. MacDonald is going as a coach too. Many thanks to Ms. Eves and Ms. Quick, who coached, but will give the opportunity of attending the District Meet to Ms. D and Ms. MacDonald.
Our Grade 7/8s have a strong Ultimate Frisbee team who will compete on Thursday, June 11th. Thanks to Ms. MacDonald for coaching.
