Where is the Cat???

Can you find the cat camouflaged in this picture?  Camouflage in animals is a structural and sometimes behavioural form of adaptation.  Pretty awesome!

Tynehead Park 4S

Creation Enjoying AND Community Building!

Ms. Hofstede led our assembly this morning and instead of our more traditional chapel, she opted to organize a MASSIVE photo scavenger hunt!  It was a BLAST!  All of the grades 1-7 students were organized into small mixed groups and given the task of collecting pictures of a set list of items that Ms. Hofstede provided.  It was a huge success, and a fun way for students to get to know each other!

Terry Fox Buddy Event

Last week Wednesday morning, the entire school got together to remember Terry Fox and his efforts to raise money to help fund cancer research.  Mr. Stuart shared a video with us that inspired us to never give up, even when times get tough.  We also spent some time walking or running around the soccer field with our big buddies from the high school.

Exploring the Watersheds and Discovering Connections 

We plan to experience this special place and discover its unique treasures. This is a place where few people go, wildlife abounds, trees tower in mountains and valleys and water moves through natural landscapes to our water supply system.

We will hop on the ‘water’ bus, see the dam, learn how water gets from reservoir to tap and explore what makes watershed ecosystems important through fun, student-centered activities.

Students will make connections between healthy ecosystems and a healthy water supply. Once they've experienced the magic, they will be reminded of their special day, every time they turn on the tap!
