spring 2011

Hi Folks, Hopefully you did not find the winter to long and are prepared to get outside and enjoy some warmer weather. The students were very active over the last few months doing everything from skating to Fort Whyte Nature Centre to after school activities, etc. As we head into our final term I am preparing to start Manitoba Marathon super run training on April 18th. This is open to students from grades 3 to 6 to train them for the 2.6 mile super run at the marathon on Fathers Day. Should students wish to train and not run in the marathon that is fine also. This is a great opportunity for students to get in great physical condition. Should any parents wish to participate you are more than welcome to. Training will take place on days1, 3, and 5 of the school cycle at 11:45. There will be no training on Thursdays as those are swimming days. Should you have any questions please do not hesitate to contact me. I am currently setting up a track and field meet for the students in grades 4, 5, and 6 on Friday, May 27th at St. Pauls in Elie. The rain date would be the following Friday. This would also involve the students from St. Eustache and hopefully Starbuck School also. The final activity would be for students in grades 5 and 6 which would be a tennis baseball tournament at St. Eustache. A date fot this has not yet been set but it has generally been late June. As always should you have any questions or concerns please do not hesitate to contact me at 864-2868. Take care.
