Monday, June 26th

Eeeeks.....late post! Better late than never?

So tomorrow is the grade 6 farewell assembly at 1:00pm! There was a bit of confusion between the office and us but as it stands and as mentioned in the school calendar, it is indeed at 1pm.

Students have been talked to about what the day will look like and that they are to be at school no later than 12:40pm after lunch because the grade 6 students will be the last to enter the gym.

We hope to see you all there.

Reminder that Wednesday is the last day of school and dismissal is at 11:00 am.

See you tomorrow!

Today we worked on our final exam preparation by trying out a previous LA part PAT.

We recommend that you review your soc/sci notes daily for 30mins, practice on mathletics / textbook work, and read the blog for all the tips, tricks, and notes.

We hope everyone has a fun-filled Friday full of studying!

2006 LA part 2 PAT practice

We started this exam today in class. Some students did not finish, and we did not have enough time to provide feedback on all the questions / give all the answers out.  So here is the exam to help people finish, and/or mark their own exam to see how they did!
