School Away from School April 28th - May 1st

Here are some wonderful examples of this week's learning.  Ethan is using a hydroponic kit to start basil and leeks.  Liam grew then sold sunflowers. He and his brother raised $80.00 for the Food Bank and Lions Gate Hospital.  Owen's dog Teddy is enjoying a snuggle while Owen reads.  Maya has been busy doing in depth reports about the brain and lungs and about the periodic table.  Andrew and his friends have been building a bike trail.  He has also been helping to build a tree house.  Holly has created some colourful art in the style of Andy Warhol.  Dayton made pizza with a face and helped his dad assemble a gaming PC.  And Elizabeth cooked pancakes and made a maze in her bedroom.  Apparently her cat 'triggered the alarm'.  Wow!

I have included a photo of the rhododendron Brooksbank gave Gerry, the gardener, for his hundredth birthday!  Students from our class dug the hole and planted it in February.
