Snowmen at Night!


The Grade One's made their own snowman using construction paper. We have a snowman that is a French artist and we also have a snowman that is a detective. Very creative! Grade One's also enjoyed our experiment in science. We learned about the sense of smell.

YCS Generosity Card


Today, the Grade One's talked about being generous. The YCS students are encouraged to share an act of random generosity. We came up with examples of being generous. For example, helping mom do the dishes, shoveling the neighbours sidewalk, etc. *Give the card to the person you helped out.
