21 septiembre, 2022

 Due to Parent Teacher Interviews, there is no school for all students on Friday, September 23.  It is a full day of school for all students, including Tuesday/Thursday Kindergarten students on Thursday, September 22.

Dalhousie students and families will be participating in the annual Terry Fox run. The run will be held at the school on September 26 at 1:45 PM. Donations can be made online to the Terry Fox foundation under Dalhousie School. Students are also encouraged to bring a Toonie for Terry on the day of the run. 

School photos will take place on September 27 for the Tuesday/Thursday Kindergarten group, Grades 1, 3 and 5. On September 28, the Monday/Wednesday Kindergarten group as well as Grades 2 and 4 will have their pictures taken. Please note that it will be the individual as well as the class photos. A retake date will be confirmed.

ORANGE SHIRT DAY - On Monday, October 3, Monday/Wednesday kindergarten students are encouraged to wear orange shirts in recognition of Orange Shirt Day.


This week we learned about Terry Fox.  We read books about his life, watched a video and discussed why he was a Canadian hero.  We talked about the difference between a hero and a superhero, and sorted pictures into the correct category.


We are continuing to learn about patterning.  Today, the children demonstrated their understanding of patterning using a variety of materials.



Here are some patterning action songs we have been exploring.

We went to the library today (Wednesday is our day to exchange books) and the children who returned their books, chose new ones.
