Happy December!  This will be a short but busy month as we countdown to the holidays.  Our December Sharing Assembly is Monday, December 17 at 9:00 am and 12:40 pm in the lunch room.  Everyone is invited.  I will be slightly longer as the Kindergarten classes share some songs of the season and hand out our character certificates.  We would like each child to wear a Santa hat that day for the Sharing Assembly.  Looking forward to seeing you there.
Thank you to everyone who has sent in a donation for our Stonegate Basket.  Please contact your Grade Parent for additional information.  The baskets are filling up and two families will have a great start to the new year because of your generosity.  Donations will be collected until Monday, December 10.
Both classes have now met their Grade Four Learning Buddies.  The morning class meets with Ms. Zappi's class and the afternoon class meets with Mrs. Dias' class.  It is a wonderful way to make new friends and a fabulous learning experience for all the students.  The children will be making a countdown to Christmas craft with their buddies this week.  The Kindergarten students are already looking forward to their next visit.
We are continuing to complete graphing activities in math and I have introduced the numbers to 9.  We will be starting some activities celebrating the holiday seasons.  I am looking forward to the wonderful sharing from the leaders this month as they share some of their favourite seasonal objects.
Thank you to everyone who helped tie a tie for their child and sent a donation on Friday for our spirit day.  The children looked wonderful as we showed our LKS spirit and helped out the fight against men's cancer.
A reminder that Friday, December 7 is a PA Day and there is no school.
