We had lots of fun things going on at school today! In the morning, all of grade 6 took a bus to ARC to go ice skating. We had a few minor cuts and bruises, but other than that students seemed to have a blast. It was a great opportunity to get out and have some fun together.
This afternoon we were blessed with the opportunity to watch Shane Wiebe perform some Christmas music with his wife. Shane was a Canadian Idol finalist and has an incredible singing voice, and is also a very talented pianist. His wife is also an amazing singer and violinist. They seemed excited about the opportunity to perform at a Christian school where they could be open about their faith and share a bit of a message.
Now that things have quieted down a bit after the Culture Fair, I am excited to get started with our Science unit on Extreme Environments. We will begin this unit tomorrow and it will continue through January. Students will have the opportunity to think about why we explore the world around us, as well as learn some of the characteristics of extreme environments like deserts, caves, deep sea, and outer space.
