School Presenters
Local Author, Marie Prins, has received a grant from the Writers Union of Canada to do an author visit at our school. She will present her new picture book Who’s Walking Dawg?. The presentation will be 45-50 minutes and include a PowerPoint reading of the book plus a walk-through of it to focus on the illustrations and how they tell half the story, and of course time for questions and answers about pet care, story inspiration, and drawing pictures to tell stories.
The Cornerstone program being delivered to our grade 6 to 8 classes by Tina Kinmond focuses on numerous elements of the health program as well as developing learning skills across the curriculum. For example, skills on building healthy relationships with peers and managing and building emotional regulation skills. Furthermore, creating empathy for peers, being inclusive and embracing diversity will also be explored.
