Hi Families,

This week, we explored the final piece in our Circle fo Courage - Independence. Within Independence, students shared their thoughts, and represented their ideas on:

I can be responsible
I can show control
I can solve problems

Our work on the Circle of Courage will be the focus of our assembly on 
Wednesday, October 30th at 1:10pm. 
We hope to see you there!

On Thursday, author Jace Jax and artist Henry Hama visited our school to read their new Kidsburgh Chronicles book: Little Jack Jarmagan - A Halloween Tale. The presentation was captivating, as they shared their personal stories in becoming an author and illustrator duo, and the long process behind creating a published book. Students were engaged as Jace read the rhyming verse of the book, and Henry explained the steps of creating characters, from sketchbook to digital illustrations.
