LEARNING AT LPS
Students in 4A worked on a fun art project and tested out a cool new medium/tool. Can't wait to see the finished projects hanging on the wall!
COOKING UP A STORY
We are excited to work with our MHCB (Mental Health Capacity Building) coach, Miss Jenna, to offer a super fun family event called "Cooking Up a Story".
This is a special event where we provide the groceries and recipe for your family to cook supper together with us over a zoom meeting. While our suppers are cooking, we all get to share some of our favourite stories. We love when students offer to read a few pages form their favourite book as part of the experience.
Please consider joining us on November 4th. Supplies will be ready for pick up at the end of the school day and we will cook our suppers together from 5:30 - 6:30 pm.
You can register your family for the event at THIS LINK. It is available for the first 25 families and is completely free.
