Today was the last day for the Joy Pod's student teachers, Miss Koh & Miss G.
We thanked them for everything they have done for us and wished them luck! We hope to see them again soon.

Joy Pod is collecting small sized plastic bottles. It would be great if you could send plastic bottles to school this week. Thank you.

Ms. Ross'  and Ms. Chang's Inquiry Groups

The students of Ms. Ross' Museum Group and Ms. Chang's Vivo Group will be participating in a Nature BioBlitz on Monday, April 29th from 1:20-2:20.  We will be heading outside with the challenge of documenting all the nature we can find using ipads.  We are going to see how Calgary's nature stacks up to cities around the world! Calgary will be under a total Bioblitz and compete with cities like Berlin, Rio de Janeiro, San Francisco and over 100 others in an attempt to document and identify all things wild!
