Hello MAS Families!! Another exciting week here at
MAS. On Wednesday students enjoyed dancing and singing along with Art
Richard at Royal Road to songs in French and in English. Later that evening we
had many families come back to our Family Math Night. I want to thank those
that were able to attend and hopefully you found the night and resources very
informative and helpful for math learning at home. Also Wednesday
night, our Grade 4/5 class and Choir were awarded the "Best
Non-Competitive Entry" at music festival this year. We received a nice
plaque to display in the school. Congratulations!
Thursday we started our student chosen Creative
Clusters. Students are already excited to showcase in June what they will be
learning about during this enrichment time.
