Happy Weekend Everyone!
Another busy day inJoy Pod.  
Vivo Group finished their Open Minds Experience.
We had our third of four Wonder Times.  

Thank you to everyone who came out for the Family BBQ last night.  The kids kept the bouncy castles on the ground in the crazy winds.  The food trucks were great.
Thank you to Parent Council for hosting such a wonderful event.

Twin Valley Farms Field Trip June 2019
We are very excited to provide the opportunity for the current classes of Grade 1/2 students to participate in the Twin Valley Farms Field Trip experience this June! This is a very special experience that takes place at Twin Valley Farms, a very large ranch just southeast of Nanton, AB, offering students an up-close-and-personal experience learning how food is grown and raised in the province of Alberta.

Twin Valley Farms offers students opportunities to see farm equipment up close and in action, live animals (mostly spring babies), seeding plans, learn how drones are used on the farm, how grain is made into flour and observe a giant-sized water irrigation system actually working – sometimes even a crop dusting plane will fly by just to ‘wave’ at the students. 

The Joy Pod will be going to Twin Valley Farm for a field trip on Wednesday, June 19th.  We will be traveling by coach bus and will return to the school between 4:00-4:30pm.

It is Eric Harvie School's annual Sports Day on June 25th and we need some help.  

We need volunteers to set-up, supervise stations and take down. The more volunteers that we can get to help out the better! You can sign-up for the morning shift, afternoon shift or if you are really keen--both :)

Volunteers must have completed their police security checks and have their security clearance.

As always, thank you very much for volunteering your time.
